Former Watertown, Minn., Mayor Steve Sarvi was endorsed by the DFL Party for the state's 2nd Congressional District at the district's convention Monday, May 5, in Fairbault.
Sarvi will take on Republican incumbent Congressman John Kline of Lakeville.
Sarvi said Kline has been going down the wrong path with President Bush in the occupation of Iraq.
"To get our country back on track, we need to come together and act and elect members of Congress who serve us - not their party leaders, not the president, not lobbyists," Sarvi said in an interview following the convention.
