Ilhan Omar
Placed from the roll-call score. Bioguide O000173.
Ilhan Omar is the Democrat representative for the House from MN, district 5 in the 119th Congress. The chart uses the October 2026 snapshot. The position is Voteview’s DW-NOMINATE score of the roll calls. Color is the party label. The place is the votes.
The first dimension is -0.296, drawn as economics -30. That is left of center on economics. The second dimension is -0.955, drawn as authority -95. The other axis sits toward liberty. Voteview’s second dimension is not a pure social axis. The chart uses the public file anyway, rather than inventing a different number.
Inside the House, this first-dimension score ranks 161 of 433 from the left. The first-dimension score is right of the Democrat median in this chamber (-0.39). The nearest other House scores are Rashida Tlaib (Democrat, -0.290), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (Democrat, -0.333), Ayanna Pressley (Democrat, -0.375). Those names are neighbors on the scale, not a slate.
A short public-record note says: Minnesota Democrat. Squad member. Foreign policy critic of Israel and a progressive brand. The score is the placement. The sentence only names what the record is already known for.
One left-to-right score cannot say how Ilhan Omar would vote on a single bill. The identity and the vote file can be checked at congress.gov through bioguide O000173.
