During an election year campaign committees of candidates who file for office are required to file three Reports of Receipts and Expenditures: pre-primary, pre-general, and year-end. Campaign committees of candidates whose office is not up for election and candidates who chose not to file for office file one year-end report. Offices open for election in 1998 were: Constitutional, House of Representatives, and certain Judicial seats. Political party units, political committees, and political funds that attempt to influence state elections also filed pre-primary, pre-general, and year-end reports. This summary is based on reports for election year 1998, as filed with the Board by principal campaign committees of candidates for five constitutional offices (36 candidates filed), 134 state representative seats (290 candidates filed), and by 17 candidates for elective judicial seats. Additionally, this summary includes data supplied by 67 senate officeholders; 8 state judicial officeholders, 384 committees of candidates who did not file for election in 1998; 323 political party committees; and 346 political committees and political funds.

  • Results of Elections Attorneys General 1857
    RESULTS OF ELECTIONS OF ATTORNEYS GENERAL 1857 - 2014 ------- ※------- COMPILED BY Douglas A. Hedin Editor, MLHP ------- ※------- (2016) 1 FOREWORD The Office of Attorney General of Minnesota is established by the constitution; its duties are set by the legislature; and its occupant is chosen by the voters. 1 The first question any historian of the office confronts is this: why is the attorney general elected and not appointed by the governor? Those searching for answers to this question will look in vain in the debates of the 1857 constitutional convention. That record is barren because there was a popular assumption that officers of the executive and legislative branches of the new state government would be elected. This expectation was so deeply and widely held that it was not even debated by the delegates. An oblique reference to this sentiment was uttered by Lafayette Emmett, a member of the Democratic wing of the convention, during a debate on whether the judges should be elected: I think that the great principle of an elective Judiciary will meet the hearty concurrence of the people of this State, and it will be entirely unsafe to go before any people in this enlightened age with a Constitution which denies them the right to elect all the officers by whom they are to be governed. 2 Contemporary editorialists were more direct and strident. When the convention convened in St. Paul in July 1857, the Minnesota Republican endorsed an elected judiciary and opposed placing appointment power in the chief executive: The less we have of executive patronage the better.

  • Minnesota's Scandinavian Political Legacy
    Minnesota’s Scandinavian Political Legacy by Klas Bergman In 1892, Minnesota politics changed, for good. In that break-through year, Norwegian-born, Knute Nelson was elected governor of Minnesota, launching a new era with immigrants and their descendants from the five Nordic countries in leadership positions, forming a new political elite that has reshaped the state’s politics. The political story of the Scandinavian immigrants in Minnesota is unique. No other state can show a similar political involvement, although there are examples of Scandinavian political leaders in other states. “Outside of the Nordic countries, no other part of the world has been so influenced by Scandinavian activities and ambitions as Minnesota,” Uppsala University professor Sten Carlsson once wrote.1 Their imprint has made Minnesota the most Scandinavian of all the states, including in politics. These Scandinavian, or Nordic, immigrants from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden created a remarkable Scandinavian political legacy that has shaped Minnesota politics in a profound way and made it different from other states, while also influencing American politics beyond Minnesota. Since 1892, the Scandinavians and their descendants have been at the forefront of every phase of Minnesota’s political history. All but five of Minnesota’s twenty-six governors during the following 100 years have been Scandinavians—mostly Swedes and Norwegians, but also a Finland-Swede and a Dane, representing all political parties, although most of them— twelve—were Republicans. Two of them were talked about as possible candidates for the highest office in the land, but died young—John Governor Knute Nelson. Vesterheim Archives.

MN 55303 PH 612-427-5921 JOINT ECONOMIC FAX 612-427-8872 STATEMENT OF U.S. SENATOR ROD GRAMS Before the House Committee on Resources, Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests and Lands on Legislation Regarding the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and Voyageurs National Park July 16, 1996 Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for holding today’s important hearing on the issues surrounding the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and Voyageurs National Park. Knowing that you have already chaired two field hearings on these national treasures, 1 truly appreciate your longstanding commitment to hearing the views of Minnesotans and citizens nationwide. Mr. Chairman, we are here to discuss how it is possible to both protect and enjoy the beauty and splendor of these two national treasures. As you can see from the proposals we are debating today, we in the Minnesota delegation agree with each other on these goals, but differ as to how best to achieve them. During the two congressional field hearings in Minnesota, I found that nearly every Minnesotan also shares these goals. With that in mind, I have joined my colleague Jim Oberstar, who represents the areas containing both the BWCAW and Voyageurs National Park, in introducing modest, common-sense proposals to return to the original intents of the laws creating these two areas and to give the public a say in how their land is managed.
