Elected Speaker

Lisa Demuth [1]
Republican

The 2024 Minnesota House of Representatives election was held in the U.S. state of Minnesota on November 5, 2024, to elect members to the House of Representatives of the 94th Minnesota Legislature. Primaries took place on August 13, 2024. [2]

Contents

In the previous legislature, the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL) leveraged their existing trifecta to enact significant legislative changes, including paid family leave, universal free school meals, a progressive child tax credit, increased sales and gas taxes for housing and transportation respectively, codified abortion rights, established a commission to redesign the state flag, and eliminated public university tuition for families earning under $85,000. The slim majorities held by the DFL were maintained by narrow victories in key battleground districts. They won control of the chamber following the 2018 election and entered this cycle with a majority of 5 seats. [3]

The DFL lost 3 seats in Greater Minnesota to the Republicans, resulting in a tie with both parties winning 67 seats. [4] Two seats, in 14B in Saint Cloud and 54A in Shakopee, were won by the DFL within a 0.5% margin and held hand recounts, which confirmed the initial winners. [5]

Republicans challenged three seat results in court. In District 54A, 21 ballots went missing due to human error on the first day of absentee ballot processing, and the margin between candidates was only 15 votes after a recount. [6] [7] The judge ruled in favor of Tabke, denying the request for a special election. [8]

In District 40B, Republicans successfully invalidated DFL winner Curtis Johnson's election certificate. [9] The judge ruled that Johnson did not meet residency requirements and was thus ineligible to take the oath of office. [10] [11] This temporarily shifted the House majority to 67–66 in favor of Republicans until a special election was held, which shifted it back to 67–67. DFL representatives held a boycott of the first three weeks of the legislative sessions, in an attempt to deny the Republicans a quorum, [12] until the two parties made a power sharing agreement on February 5. [13] and on February 6, Lisa Demuth was elected as speaker. [14]

Close races

Major Minnesota news outlets published lists of House districts that were expected to be competitive in 2024 based on past results and campaign spending. The Minnesota Star Tribune considered 15 races competitive, MPR News listed 14 as districts to watch, MinnPost and the Minnesota Reformer both cited 16 districts. [35] [36] [37] [38]

21 districts were decided by margins below 10 points, 16 races under 5 points, and 4 separated by less than 1%. [34] The closest contest was in District 54A, where Brad Tabke led by 14 votes on election night (0.06%); this margin was extended to 15 votes after a hand recount. Districts 54A and 14B both saw their results confirmed in recounts. [39] [40]

Incumbent Republican Natalie Zeleznikar ran for re-election. She defeated DFLer and former judge and nephew of former legislator Willard Munger, Mark Munger by a 130 vote, 0.60% margin.

The district was targetted by both parties due to its narrow margins in 2020, when Zeleznikar defeated long-time incumbent Mary Murphy by a margin of 33 votes. [54] [55] In the campaign, high amounts of outside spending came into the district in support of both candidates, with spending in the district being the fifth most expensive race in the house of representatives. [56] During the campaign, both candidates maintained a friendly tone and stuck to traditional campaign messaging. [54]

District 14A

District 14A includes about half of St. Cloud and the cities of St. Joseph and St. Augusta. The district has experienced significant demographic changes due to an influx of immigrants, particularly from East Africa, in the last decade. About 68% of residents are non-Hispanic White, 20% are Black or African American, and 5% are Hispanic or Latino. [70]

First-term representative Bernie Perryman won the 2022 election over her DFL opponent by 199 votes. Perryman is a small business owner and chair of the St. Cloud Chamber of Commerce. She was also a regional vice president for Anheuser-Busch for 20 years. [71]

Abdi Daisane, a Somali American business owner, is the DFL challenger. Daisane moved to St. Cloud in 2013 to attend St. Cloud State University. [72] His priorities, according to his campaign website, include supporting affordable housing, increasing funding for the state's child care centers and advocating for climate justice. [73]

Incumbent DFLer Jamie Becker-Finn declined to seek re-election. Fellow DFLer Curtis Johnson filed to run to succeed her, he was uncontested in the primary after another candidate, David Gottfried withdrew. Johnson defeated Republican Paul Wikstrom by a 29 point margin.

After the election Wikstrom alleged that Johnson did not meet state residency requirements, claiming that he primarily lived outside the district, in Little Canada, and rented a local apartment solely to run for office. [141] The district court judge in charge of the case ruled in favor of Wikstrom and invalidated Johnson's election certificate, leaving the seat vacant at the start of the session. [142] A special election was held on March 11, 2025. Gottfried, a DFL candidate who withdrew prior to the November election, defeated Republican Paul Wikstrom in the special election. [143]

Incumbent DFLer Brad Tabke ran for re-election. He defeated Republican police officer Aaron Paul by a close 0.06% margin. While Tabke had returned to office in 2022 by an 8-point margin, defeating representative Erik Mortensen, Republicans had hoped that running a more moderate Republican like Paul would give them a better chance of winning the seat. [159]

Initial results showed Tabke with a 14 vote lead, with a 0.06% margin. [160] Following the election, it was discovered that the voting machines had a ballot screening malfunction, necessitating thousands of ballots be re-scanned, this was followed by a full automatic recount as perscribed by law. [161] The recount extended Tabke's lead by one vote. [162] [39] Additionally 21 absentee ballots had gone missing on election day, which prompted legal challenges from Republicans. [163] [7] The Scott County Attorney's investigation showed that those ballots were likely in-person early votes, thrown out in error on the first day of absentee ballot counting. [6] In response to the discrepancy, Paul called for a new election to be held entirely, while requesting that the courts find that Scott County election officials had violated the law. [164] Eventually, twelve absentee ballots were matched to the voters who had cast them and at the trial in December, six voters testified that they had voted for Tabke, while six testified they had voted for Paul. [165] On the first day of session, the judge ruled in favor of Tabke, denying Paul's request for a special election. [8]
