A majority takes 68 seats. Republicans had won 50, and 12 races were still outstanding. Democrats entered Election Day with 67 House seats, <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/minnesota\/news\/minnesota-house-sits-at-67-66-as-both-parties-fight-for-capitol-control\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">WCCO reported Oct. 9<\/a><\/span>, after a Republican&#8217;s resignation broke a 67-67 tie.<\/p>\n<p>In the Senate, the DFL had won at least 34 of 67 seats, the number needed for a majority, with roughly a dozen races still to be called. Republicans had won 24, and nine races were still outstanding. Democrats held a 34-33 majority going into the election.<\/p>\n<p>The trifecta means one party controls the governor&#8217;s office, the House and the Senate. U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, the DFL nominee, won the race for governor Tuesday, defeating Republican House Speaker Lisa Demuth. She is <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/minnesota\/news\/who-is-running-for-governor-in-minnesota\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">expected to be the first woman<\/a><\/span> to serve as Minnesota&#8217;s governor.<\/p>\n<p>Klobuchar entered the race after Gov. Tim Walz said he would not seek a third term. Her win gives the DFL the governor&#8217;s office to go with the House and Senate.<\/p>\n<p>Minnesota has had divided government since the 2024 election, when Republicans flipped three House seats, the chamber tied 67-67 and the DFL&#8217;s <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/minnesota\/news\/minnesota-house-legislature-tie-trifecta\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">two-year trifecta<\/a><\/span> ended.

DFL Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy said voters could change that.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fraud:<\/strong> Republicans pushed for a new Office of Inspector General to investigate fraud. The plan had bipartisan support in the Senate but did not clear the House.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Taxes and the budget:<\/strong> Republicans wanted the state&#8217;s tax code aligned with new federal tax changes.
