Nov. 6—WORTHINGTON — Rep. Marj Fogelman (R-Fulda) jumped out to an early lead Tuesday night and it never dwindled, earning her a trip back to St. Paul to represent the residents of Minnesota House District 21B.

Fogelman was challenged for the seat by Jon Wilson, mayor of St. James and an 18-year social studies teacher in that community.

Fogelman received 11,983 votes (66.3%) to Wilson's 6,078 votes (33.63%), according to numbers posted on the Minnesota Secretary of State website.

Fogelman, a wife, mother and business owner, ran on a myriad of issues, including her pro-life stance, support for school choice, the Second Amendment, healthcare freedom, law enforcement and strict punishments for offenders, and election integrity.

Wilson, meanwhile, campaigned for increased funding for EMTs, support for public education, protecting the rights of law-abiding gun owners and law enforcement, expanding affordable housing and ensuring fairness in property taxes, fiscal responsibility in government, access to health insurance and improving broadband access in Greater Minnesota. He also campaigned on rights and religious freedoms for all, as well as women's rights.
