  • Minnesota Primary: Key Incumbents Sent Packing
    News & Insights Minnesota Primary: Key Incumbents Sent Packing Alert 08.12.2020 By Paul Cassidy In the face of a pandemic, while many Minnesotans went to their assigned polling places yesterday in order to cast ballots for a number of contested inter-party challenges on both the DFL and Republican side of the aisle, hovering over the election is the specter of counting thousands of mail-in absentee ballots in a timely fashion. Due to the pandemic, many polling places have been consolidated and polling officials worry also that they don't have enough election judges and ballot officials. As of Tuesday morning, almost 500,000 voters had cast their ballot votes by mail. Additionally, due to a court order, absentee ballots will be accepted after Election Day, up to the day before the county's canvassing date. Headlining this year's Minnesota primary was a pitched battle between first-term incumbent U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar and her challenger Antone Melton-Meaux, who were fighting for the DFL nomination and the right to go on to the general election. The race captured national attention due to Omar's high-profile progressive views and her membership in the "The Squad." Political analysts believe when all is said and done, this race will far outspend any previous primary totals in the history of Minnesota elections. In the end, Omar coasted to a relatively easy victory, with numbers not far off from her 2018 primary victory. A number of sitting Minnesota legislators faced challenges within their own party and fought to keep their seats in the Minnesota House and Senate.

AGRICULTURE Farmers with revocable trusts won’t have to file report Corporate entities that own farmland must file annual reports regarding potential land contamination. But only farmers who own agricultural land in revocable trusts of which they are beneficiaries are liable as individuals for criminal penalties under the law if they don’t file the reports. A new law will end the reporting requirement for an estimated 3,600 revocable trusts, many of whose owners may be unaware of their duty. The law, sponsored by Rep. Dennis Smith (R-Maple Grove) and Sen. Scott Newman (R-Hutchinson), adds this sentence to statute: “The trustee of a revocable trust with respect to which either the settlor, the settlor’s spouse, or both, are the primary beneficiaries during the settlor’s lifetime shall not be required to file with the commissioner a report under this section during any period that the trust is revocable.” HF22*/SF50/CH36 BUSINESS AND COMMERCE Companies can limit life insurance to beneficiaries of suspected terrorists A new law will give insurance companies the go-ahead in limiting life insurance payouts to beneficiaries of suspected terrorists.
