Michele Tafoya, a former television sports reporter, is the winner of the Republican nomination for Senate in the Minnesota primary election, CBS News projects. Tafoya, when she announced her candidacy in January, said Minnesota was "in a crisis." A Republican has not been elected to the U.S. Senate from Minnesota since Norm Coleman in 2002. Tafoya defeated a large field that included Adam Schwarze, a former Navy SEAL and Marine, who was endorsed by the Republican Party of Minnesota at its state convention in Duluth in May.
