Keith Ellison (MN AG candidate) 5 points ahead, 70% vote in, but his margin keeps shrinking [View all]

call me Nervous Nellie rather than Debbie Downer. He was 14 points ahead with 29% of the vote in when I first began watching. I sure don't want a religious nutcake (Wardlow-R) determining consumer protections among other matters.

Keith Ellison (AG candidate) --That Legalize Cannabis Noah Johnson person has 5.8% of the vote. About 3 weeks ago Noah Johnson asked his supporters to support Keith Ellison, not him. But he remained on the ballot.

Otherwise its been a beautiful night in MN I think - we got a Gov (D), both our senators won. The U.S. House -- didn't gain or lose (for awhile we were looking like we lost a couple). I might be off by one? Weren't we 5 D and 3 R before?

And I don't know beans about how the state legislature is doing .... the MN Senate is tied and whoever wins the special election today determines control of the Senate. The MN House is majority R, but not by a big margin -- the entire MN House is being elected today.
