3 Candidates Vying To Replace Ramstad To Debate

GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. (AP) ― A debate between the three men trying to replace Rep. Jim Ramstad in Minnesota's 3rd Congressional District is scheduled for next month.

Democrat Ashwin Madia, Republican Erik Paulsen and Independent David Dillon will face off during the August 21 debate sponsored by the TwinWest Chamber of Commerce. The chamber primarily represents businesses in Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park, Crystal, Golden Valley, Hopkins, Medicine Lake, Minnetonka, New Hope, Plymouth and St. Louis Park.

Ramstad, a Republican, has been in Congress for nearly 18 years but is choosing to retire.
