These elections will be contested using redistricted boundaries. Home to quite a few competitive districts in recent cycles, only District 2 looks to be closely-contested in 2022. There, Democrat Angie Craig is seeking a third term.

In a bizarre coincidence, this will be the second consecutive election where the Legal Marijuana Now nominee died after the ballot was finalized. In 2020, Adam Weeks got about 6% of the vote, so the presence of Paula Overby - this year's nominee - on the ballot could make a difference in a close race.

State Senate

Republicans hold a narrow 34-31 edge over Democrats in the Minnesota State Senate. There is one independent and one vacancy. The chamber uses a 2-4-4 system: Terms are four years in length except two years for the election immediately preceding a redistricting. The 2020 elections were for two years, the ones this year and in 2026 will be for four years.

The CNalysis model showed Republicans with a 62% probability of maintaining control of the State Senate. Democrats had an 38% chance of winning the chamber.
