VIDEO: Obermueller Ad Compares Washington D.C. to Overstaffed Pizza Parlor

Eagan resident Mike Obermueller, a Democrat running against incumbent Rep. John Kline (R), spent approximately $150,000 on the ad.

Second Congressional District challenger Mike Obermueller, a Democrat, released his first televised campaign advertisement earlier this week.

Obermueller, an Eagan resident, is campaigning against incumbent Rep. John Kline (R), of Lakeville.
