(AP) \u2014 President Donald Trump and Gov. Doug Burgum have earned lopsided victories in North Dakota, a state with a long history of backing Republicans. Trump remains popular in the state where oil is king. Burgum defeated Democrat Shelley Lenz four years after he won his first term as a businessman looking to reinvent government. With the pandemic running unchecked in North Dakota, Lenz had tried to make an issue of Burgum&#8217;s management. U.S. Rep. Kelly Armstrong also won another term, defeating Democrat Zach Raknerud.<\/p>\n<p>ND State Election Results\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Measure 1 \u2013 Reform Board of Higher Ed Membership, term length<\/p>\n<p>328 of 422 precincts \u2013 78 percent<\/p>\n<p>Yes, 91,335 \u2013 27 percent<\/p>\n<p>x-No, 241,287 \u2013 73 percent<\/p>\n<p>Measure 2 \u2013 Amend Con Initiative Process Submit to legislature<\/p>\n<p>328 of 422 precincts \u2013 78 percent<\/p>\n<p>Yes, 124,900 \u2013 38 percent<\/p>\n<p>x-No, 200,760 \u2013 62 percent<\/p>\n<p>Kirsten Baesler, NP, elected Supt. of Public<\/p>\n<p>Instr., North Dakota.<\/p>\n<p>Brian Kroshus, GOP, elected Public Service Comm<\/p>\n<p>Joshua Gallion, GOP, elected Auditor, North Dakota.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BISMARCK, N.D.
