2024 Minnesota House of Representatives election
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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]
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]

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]
