The 2024 United States Senate election in Minnesota will be held on November 5, 2024, to elect a member of the United States Senate to represent the state of Minnesota . Incumbent three-term Democratic Senator Amy Klobuchar was re-elected with 60.3% of the vote in 2018. Klobuchar is running for re-election to a fourth term. Primary elections will take place on August 13, 2024. [1]
Background
Minnesota is considered to be a slightly to moderately blue state at the federal level, especially since in the 2020 presidential election , Joe Biden carried Minnesota by about seven percentage points. Democrats control both U.S. Senate seats, all statewide offices, and its state legislature. [2] [3]
Klobuchar was first elected in 2006 by 20 points defeating former U.S. Representative Mark Kennedy . She also won re-election in 2012 and 2018 by large margins. [4]
This race is considered to be clearly favoring Klobuchar as she has won all three of her Senate elections by 20 points or more and typically over-performs other down-ballot candidates. [5]
