(KNOX) – North Dakota Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak was re-elected last Tuesday to a second term, as she defeated Democrat Trygve Hammer and Independent candidates Charles Tuttle and Helene Neville. Fedorchak received 57.32 percent of the vote, and defeated Hammer by over 20 percentage points. She tells KNOX’s Critical Thought with Noah Chelliah.
As she won her race, the Democrats overwhelmingly won both the U.S. House and Senate. With President Trump having two more years in office, she hopes she will be able to work with Democrats amid a very partisan atmosphere.
Fedorchak wants to work with her political opposition, but she is also nervous about how the Democrats will use their power come January.
Democrats have a 259-176 majority in the House and a 54-44 majority in the Senate. There are still two Senate races that haven’t been determined yet. The 120th U.S. Congress will be sworn into office on January 3rd, 2027.
