Democrats (DFL) gained three seats, giving them a majority of 34 out of 67 seats and winning control of the chamber for the first time since 2012.[1] Simultaneously with Democrats retaining control of the state house, and Governor Tim Walz winning re-election, the DFL won a trifecta in the state for the first time since 2012.[2]
Background
The last election in 2020 resulted in the Republican Party of Minnesota retaining a majority of seats,[3] after winning a majority from the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party (DFL) only four years earlier in the previous election in 2016. Control of the Senate has alternated between the Republicans and the DFL every election since 2010.[4] All-Republican control of the Legislature ended when the DFL won a majority in the House in 2018.[5]
Electoral system
The 67 members of the Senate will be elected from single-member districts via first-past-the-post voting for four-year terms. Contested nominations of recognized major parties (DFL, Grassroots-Legalize Cannabis, Legal Marijuana Now, and Republican) for each district will be determined by an open primary election. Minor party candidates will be nominated by petition. Write-in candidates must file a request with the Secretary of State's office for votes for them to be counted. Candidates for the state Senate in 2022 were required to file to run between May 17, 2022 and May 31, 2022.[6]

Reapportionment
Due to the 2020 United States Census, the law required redistricting to occur before February 15, 2022, in order to give candidates ample notice before the legislative filing window in late May. Historically, the legislature has often been unable to agree on redistricting, leading to a court decision on the issue.
In August 2021, hearings began in both the House and Senate Redistricting Committee, with the Senate committee members having their first meeting in Bemidji on August 9, and the House committee members having their first meeting on August 18.[25]
A legal challenge was filed against the congressional and legislative maps, predicting that the state legislature would not draw valid maps and would malapportion the districts.
On March 22, 2021, the Minnesota Supreme Court appointed a special redistricting panel, but issued a stay on its proceedings; on June 30, the Supreme Court appointed judges to the panel and allowed it to proceed with its appointed business.[26]
On February 15, 2022, after the Minnesota Legislature missed the redistricting deadline, the special redistricting panel released its own congressional and legislative maps.[27]
