    Candidate briefing

    Matt Little is the 2026 Democratic nominee for Minnesota’s 2nd Congressional District. A former Lakeville mayor and Minnesota state senator, he won the August 11 DFL primary over Kaela Berg and Matt Klein. He faces Republican Eric Pratt in November.

    Wikipedia records that he represented Senate District 58 from 2017 to 2021 and is an attorney. Our Revolution has endorsed him.

    Why Political Revolution supports him: he is the progressive nominee in an open Minnesota swing district, backed by Our Revolution after winning a contested primary.
