Senator Hoeven receives endorsement from former President Trump

(Bismarck, ND) -- Senator John Hoeven is being endorsed for re-election by former President Trump.

Trump issued the endorsement this week, citing Hoeven's commitment to "farmers, military, vets, the Second Amendment, American energy independence, and a secure border."

Trump also noted Hoeven's support during both of his impeachments. Hoeven has never lost a statewide election, but faces a primary challenge by Bismarck plastic surgeon and state representative Rick Becker.
