“In this last election, the DFL Party led the charge to defend our democracy, protect our reproductive rights, and build a Minnesota that works for everyone,” said DFL Chairman Ken Martin. “Our party’s unparalleled financial strength allowed us to invest heavily in organizing across Minnesota to put votes behind our values and improve people’s lives. I am extremely proud that the DFL Party and our allies beat the odds in a tough midterm election year, won a trifecta, and are now delivering the change Minnesotans deserve.”
