  • 2020 Final Public Subsidy Payments
    CAMPAIGN FINANCE AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE BOARD RELEASES FINAL PUBLIC SUBSIDY PAYMENT AMOUNTS FOR 2020 ELECTION During 2020 the Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board distributed $2,131,887 in public subsidy payments to 349 candidates running for state senate or state representative. The 349 candidates who received a public subsidy payment represent 78% of the 449 legislative candidates who were on the general election ballot. A list of qualifying candidates and the payments they received is attached. Of the 504 candidates who filed for state legislative office this year, 401 (79.3%) signed voluntary agreements to abide by spending limits and other conditions required to be eligible for public subsidy payments for their campaigns. To qualify for public subsidy a candidate must: • be opposed at either the primary or general election, • appear on the general election ballot, • sign and file a public subsidy agreement with the Board to abide by applicable campaign expenditure limits, and • raise a specified amount in contributions from individuals eligible to vote in Minnesota counting only the first $50 from each donor. Money for the public subsidy program comes from the state general fund. A portion of public subsidy money is allocated to specific parties and districts based on taxpayer checkoffs on income and property tax returns. By office and party, the total public subsidy payments totaled: DFL RPM State Senate $670,054 $393,772 House of Representatives $663,589 $404,471 Total $1,333,643 $798,243 DFL = Democratic Farmer Labor RPM = Republican Party of Minnesota Note: No other major or minor party candidates qualified for a public subsidy payment in 2020.

  • 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.

  • 2020 Election Guide—Primary Update Minnesota
    2020 Election Guide—Primary Update Minnesota 2020 will be one of the more unusual election years in Minnesota history. The only statewide races will be for President, Tina Smith's US Senate seat, and former Speaker of the House Paul Thissen's first election race for the Supreme Court seat he was appointed to two years ago. No constitutional officers are on the ballot this year. All 201 legislative offices are on the November ballot, and campaigning may look very different this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Candidates usually connect with their communities by walking parades, and most have been cancelled for this year. Door-knocking will be difficult due to social distancing guidelines, and candidates will likely not have the opportunity to hold large in-person fundraising events, which may make it more difficult to raise money for their campaigns. The general election is November 3 and early voting begins September 18. Noteworthy Primary Races Congressional District 5: The most high-profile race of the 2020 primary was the CD5 Democratic primary. Representative Ilhan Omar faced multiple primary challengers in her first bid for re- election to Congress. Antone Melton-Meaux was seen as Representative Omar’s main competitor in the primary. Melton-Meaux spent more than $6 million on his campaign which ended up gaining the primary national attention. The city of Minneapolis had the highest turnout for a primary election in more than 50 years with over 100,000 residents that voted. Representative Omar ended up winning her primary by a comfortable margin, with 57.94% of the vote.

Members present: Flynn, Haugen, Leppik, Rashid, Rosen (arrived during executive session), Swanson Others present: Sigurdson, Engelhardt, Olson, Pope, Ross, staff; Hartshorn, counsel MINUTES (December 2, 2020) After discussion, the following motion was made: Member Flynn’s motion: To approve the December 2, 2020, minutes as drafted.

APPOINTMENT OF CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR FOR 2021 Mr. Sigurdson presented members with a memorandum regarding this issue that is attached to and made a part of these minutes. Mr. Sigurdson told members that at the August Board meeting, Member Haugen had been selected as chair, and Member Swanson had been selected as vice chair, for the remainder of 2020. Mr. Sigurdson said that, typically, at the January meeting the Board would elect the vice chair to serve as chair for the new year, and at the same time select a new vice chair. Mr. Sigurdson stated that Vice Chair Swanson was willing to serve as chair in 2021 but might have limited ability to participate in the February meeting. Member Swanson therefore had asked that Member Haugen continue to serve as chair at the January and February meetings. Mr. Sigurdson said that Member Haugen was willing to continue serving as chair for the additional two months, assuming of course that other Board members had no objections.
