Politics
— 1d
Minnesota congressional candidates offered sharply different approaches to federal deficits: Republican Brad Finstad and Tyler Bass emphasized cutting waste and fraud, while Democrats Matt Little and Erik Osberg called for higher taxes on wealthy households or corporations and stronger oversight and fraud prevention.
