Peggy Flanagan was Minnesota's No 2 official as massive fraud scandal exploded under state's watch

Minnesota's new Democratic nominee for Senate has baggage heading into the November election: the massive fraud scandal that rippled through the Land of 10,000 Lakes happened right under her nose.  

Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan scored a major win for the insurgent progressive movement that's reshaping the Democratic Party from the outside on Tuesday, toppling the more moderate Rep. Angie Craig, D-Minn., in the process. But her role during the Minnesota fraud scandal has plagued her campaign, with both sides attacking her on the issue.
