Minnesota statewide election polling

Overview

Recent polling for Minnesota statewide elections indicates tightening margins across several races. In the Attorney General contest, Ron Schutz has overtaken Keith Ellison, who previously held an 8-point lead. The gubernatorial race between Amy Klobuchar and Lisa Demuth is described as a “virtual dead heat,” while the Senate race remains competitive between the DFL nominee and Michele Tafoya. Additionally, Secretary of State Steve Simon’s lead over Tad Jude has narrowed to 4 points.

As the election approaches, voter priorities have become clearer. For the governorship, more than one-third of respondents identified fighting fraud as their top priority, followed by lowering taxes and improving healthcare access. In the U.S. Senate race, protecting Social Security is the most popular priority at 21%. For the Attorney General position, nearly half of those surveyed stated that fighting fraud should be the primary focus, with consumer protection and criminal prosecution also cited as major concerns.
