WASHINGTON — Congressman Jim Hagedorn, a Republican, said politics are at the heart of Democratic criticism of his office spending. “The DFL is lying about the facts in this story to give life to a non-issue and prop up their ultra-liberal candidate, Dan Feehan, who’s radical left-wing views don’t fit the First District,” Hagedorn said. Hagedorn is seeking a second term from southern Minnesota’s 1st District. He faces a strong challenge in a rematch with Democrat Dan Feehan.
