Omar's District is the bluest district in the state.
The GOP hasn't won the seat since the early 60s
She got 78% of the vote in 2018 and her predecessor Keith Ellison routinely got ~70% of the vote.
Kerry, Obama and Clinton all got over 70% of the vote and Klobuchar got 80% of the vote in 2018.
It's a D+26 District and the last time the GOP Rep got within 30 points of the Dem was 1994 when the Dem still won 62% - 37%

It seems like an odd place to pull this
