Was elected yesterday. The other Muslim member of Congress is Keith Ellison (D-MN). The new one is Andre Carson who won a special election yesterday in the US House district centered on Indianapolis. I actually had no idea he was a Muslim until this morning. Interesting that that didn't get played up more by the national press during the campaign.
