(The Center Square) – Democrats now hold a governing trifecta in Minnesota after flipping the state House on election night.
“Minnesotans put their trust in us to fight for them,” said Senate DFL Campaign Chair Nick Frentz in a statement early Wednesday. “Much of that trust was built because we knocked on their doors, we answered their calls and we stood up for them in the face of harm coming from Washington.”
