Edina Mayor To Announce Congressional Bid

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) ― Edina Mayor Jim Hovland is set to formally announce his bid for Congress Monday.

Hovland is a former Republican turned Democrat. He's running for the 3rd District U.S. House seat being vacated by retiring Republican Jim Ramstad.

Two other Democrats are running for Ramstad's seat -- state Senator Terri Bonoff and Iraq war veteran Ashwin Madia.

On the Republican side, state Representative Erik Paulsen is running. Paulsen plans to make a formal announcement this month.
