| | Control of Minnesota Capitol at stake; voters to pick at least 1 new member of Congress, too |
Democrats have held slim majorities in both chambers for two years and have made the case to voters that they should get an extension. They see the next term as critical to moving ahead with progressive priorities and to finish setting up a state paid family and medical leave program and legal cannabis marketplace.
Republicans, meanwhile, have argued that DFLers used their majorities to move Minnesota too far to the left and the state needs more political moderation with divided government. | |
