Results after Minnesota voters decide on key local races and measures in the 2025 election. Polls are open until 8 p.m.

Here is a roundup of election results from across Minnesota, including the Minneapolis and St. Paul mayoral races, special elections in the Minnesota Senate, and local school board races.

The DFL will retain control of the Minnesota Senate on Election Day after splitting two special elections races.

Minnesota has had a record-tying 6 legislative special elections in 2025. Any additional special election held before the end of the year would break the state’s record for most in a single calendar year.

The Minnesota Star Tribune uses vote counts from the Minnesota Secretary of State’s office to report outcomes in local elections.

Vote counts, which can be found on the Minnesota Star Tribune results page, will show who’s leading in the Minneapolis and St. Paul mayoral races, in municipal and school board elections around the state, and in two special state Senate races, in Woodbury and Wright County.

In Senate District 29, which comprises parts of Wright, Meeker and Hennepin counties to the west of the Twin Cities, Republican Michael Holmstrom Jr. comfortably beat Democratic challenger Louis McNutt. He is ahead by 24.69% with 30 out of 37 precincts reporting.
