MN Congressional District 5 encompasses all of Minneapolis, Richfield, St. Louis Park, Golden Valley, New Hope, Crystal, Robbinsdale, Fridley, Columbia Heights, Hilltop, and parts of Spring Lake Park and St. Anthony (Click here to see a larger image).

The 5th CD has 223 voting precincts within its 11 separate Senate and House Districts — otherwise known as basic political organizational units (BPOUs). Download a brochure about precinct caucuses from the MN Secretary of State site.

The current U.S. Congressman representing CD-5 is Keith Ellison (D), who was re-elected in 2008. He is up for re-election in 2010, and our endorsed candidate is Joel Demos.

CD-5 Republicans are growing in numbers, and we're seeking volunteers and candidates for each of our BPOUs. We need your talents to help our candidates win. Please contact Carleton Crawford, CD-5 Chair, if you'd like to be a part of an exciting 2010 election season!
