“Oberstar was first elected to the US House in 1974, when he was endorsed by his retiring DFL predecessor. The seat has been held by the DFL since 1947.”

MN 8 is the Arrowhead region of Minnesota: think Taconite and lumber.

Economically depressed, not too many youths (they escape to Minneapolis).

On this basis, I think Oberstar will fall...just outside the range of stolen elections.

Cheers!
