Rick Nolan's 2016 victory will be the last time a Democrat wins MN-08 for decades. Meanwhile, IN-05 is slowly trending Democratic. This is a good decision.

fun fact. The last time the iron range district flipped before 2010 was in 1946 from R to D in the middle of a Mega R wave where the republicans won back the house for the first time in 16 years.

The only reason IN 5th was so R in 2018 is that the D's didnt even contest it thinking MUH CARPETBAGGING in IN 9th made it more likely to flip.  I remember Ann Wagner was a strong incumbent too and she only won by 3 points and MO 2nd is basically an identical version of IN 5th in a politically identical state. If D's actually contested it in 2018 it would have been closer than MN 8th.
