BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Republican John Hoeven of North Dakota has won reelection to a third term in the U.S. Senate. Hoeven coasted past Rick Becker, a fellow Republican who ran as an independent, and Democrat Katrina Christiansen in Tuesday’s election.

Christiansen is a University of Jamestown engineering professor and political newcomer.
