### Results by congressional district

Biden carried all the state's eight congressional districts. He recorded his best result in the eighth district while underperforming heavily in the urban fifth district. It is represented by progressive Democrat Ilhan Omar, who supported a ceasefire in the Israel–Hamas war, but backed Biden in the primary. The district saw almost a third of votes cast for uncommitted.
Phillips trailed considerably, but managed to earn a higher result than uncommitted in the third (which he represents in Congress) and seventh districts. Meanwhile, Williamson performed poorly, with the strongest showing of just 1.88% in the seventh district.
