Democrats win control of Minnesota Senate

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5111676-minnesota-senate-democrats-control/

Democratic candidate Doron Clark is projected to win a special election for a vacant Minnesota Senate seat, giving Democrats control of the upper chamber, according to Decision Desk HQ.

Clark, who works at health care technology company Medtronic, defeated Republican candidate and software engineer Abigail Wolters for Senate District 60. The district includes portions of northeastern Minneapolis.

The vacancy was prompted after former Minnesota Senate Majority Leader Kari Dziedzic (DFL) died of cancer last month, bringing partisan control of the state Senate to a 33-33 tie.
