ABC projects MN-2 for Angie Craig (goodbye Jason Lewis you RW hate radio f.head)

https://fivethirtyeight.com/live-blog/2018-election-results-coverage

Keith Ellison (AG candidate) -- +8 with 59% of precincts counted. But his margin has been going down every time I look. That Legalize Cannabis Noah Johnson person has 5.8% of the vote. AM950 ran ads by the Legalize Cannabis governor candidate, that also mentioned that Noah Johnson is their AG candidate -- this like 3 weeks after Noah Johnson asked his supporters to support Keith Ellison, not him. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

AG is looking good so far. And AM 950 was saying the DFL took the state house.

Better than I had thought it might be earlier in the evening.

Now, who controls the redistricting? The governor or the House? Because we will still have the 2020 elections for both the House and the Senate.

redistricting won't happen until after the 2020 census so it is imperative we keep the DFL in control of the house and take the senate back.

But it will probably wind up in the courts...it always seems to.
