Politics: 2020 Minnesota Senate Race Results

There’s not much to say about this race. Minnesota has been largely blue for quite some time now. I have no idea why Trump thought that he could win here. Reagan couldn’t even win in Minnesota and Reagan could literally win every other state.

The Democratic incumbent was Tina Smith, who was first appointed to the office and then won election in her own right to a special election in 2018. A mere two years later, she found herself being challenged again for the seat, this time by Republican Jason Lewis. She won reelection with a big show from third party candidates that ultimately didn’t affect her chances of winning the election. Thus, she gets to stay around as senator for a while.
