2025 Minnesota Senate District 60 special election GudangMovies21 Rebahinxxi LK21
A special election was held in the U.S. state of Minnesota on January 28, 2025 to elect a new member for District 60 in the Minnesota Senate, representing the Northeast and University communities of Minneapolis, Hennepin County. The election filled a vacancy caused by the death of Democratic–Farmer–Labor (DFL) member Kari Dziedzic on December 28, 2024. Doron Clark of the DFL won the election with over 90% of the vote.
Background
On December 28, 2024, Senator Kari Dziedzic died of ovarian cancer. On December 30, 2024, Governor Tim Walz announced a special election to fill her vacant seat, concurrent with a special election for House District 40B.
District 60 is located in Minneapolis in Hennepin County, containing parts of Northeast, University, and Cedar-Riverside areas. In the last election in 2022, Dziedzic won an unopposed race with 98.66 percent of the vote.
Candidates
The special candidate filing period was on December 31, 2024, with a withdrawal period on January 2, 2025. Ten Democratic-Farmer-Labor candidates and three Republicans candidates filed, and three total candidates withdrew on January 2. After a challenge was filed to the Minnesota Supreme Court showing that Mohamed Jama did not live in the district, Jama announced his intent to drop from the race. On January 9, 2025, the court ruled that votes for Jama would not be counted.
