Rep. John Kline says it’s premature to speculate about running for another office.

The changing demographics and DFL-friendly voting record of Senate District 46 signaled an easy win for DFL Sen.-elect Chris Eaton in Tuesday’s special election.

The notion that Tarryl Clark is gunning for the DFL endorsement in her quest for Congress has all but been abandoned by party activists in Minnesota’s 8th Congressional District.

Gov. Mark Dayton's cabinet is almost complete. On the week in which he was officially sworn into office, Dayton continued to add to the roster of top agency officials who will help him govern alongside the GOP-controlled Legislature in confronting the state's $6.2 billion budget deficit.

Republicans think they have a shot at sweeping a longtime DFL stronghold: District 57, which covers parts of Dakota and Washington counties just southeast of the Twin Cities.

DFL gubernatorial candidate Mark Dayton has the support of two members of the DFL establishment in former state Attorney General Mike Hatch and former Minnesota Congressman Bill Luther.
