U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison filed Tuesday to run in the DFL primary for attorney general, leaving his congressional seat open and further upending the DFL field of candidates in a high-stakes election year.
Ellison, a six-term member of Congress from Minneapolis and also deputy chairman of the Democratic National Committee, made it official with a noon visit to the Secretary of State’s office.
“I believe the people of Minnesota need an attorney general who will fight for all,” Ellison said after filing.
