Bemidji Pioneer: Local activist enters 8th District race: Sorensen files for Nolan's seat in crowded field

BEMIDJI—A longtime, local activist has joined the field of Democrats seeking the party nomination in Minnesota's Eighth Congressional District.

On Tuesday, Soren C. Sorensen filed to run in the Democratic-Farmer-Labor party's primary on Aug. 14. The filing comes a few months after the 44-year-old resident of Port Hope Township lost the DFL's endorsement to Michael Northbird for the Minnesota House of Representatives District 2A seat currently held by Republican Matt Grossell.
