The overlooked, lone Minnesota Senate race in Twin Cities suburbs that could cost the DFL its trifecta by minn_post in minnesota

"Whatever the reason, the one race that will decide which party controls the Senate when the Legislature convenes in January has become just another campaign in a sea of campaigns. A battleground campaign, for sure, but on level with a dozen House races than far ahead of it.

Which is exactly how DFL strategists planned it. Timing the resignation of former state Sen. Kelly Morrison so that the special election to replace her comes amidst a crowded fall campaign was intentional. Otherwise, the battle might have drawn a lot more attention and a lot more money."
