Who are the candidates in Minnesota's Senate primary and what are their backgrounds?

Dave Anthony 0:46
Flanagan will face Michelle Thoya, a former TV sportscaster who won the Republican primary. In Wisconsin, a Democratic Socialist lost.

Last year, Columbia suspended dozens of students for their role in shutting down its main library in a pro Palestinian demonstration. The suit comes a little more than a year.
