The political ramifications of Operation Metro Surge on the November election

Later this year, the entire Minnesota Legislature up for election. The survey asked if the election for Minnesota House was held today, who would you support? The DFL finished with 48.6% to 41.8%.

Democrat analyst Abou Amara expects that lead to hold through November.

"This is the type of issue that could actually buoy Democrats down ballot for the state House and the state Senate, potentially leading to another trifecta come November," said Amara.

Republican Amy Frederiksen admits, for now, immigration has overtaken the GOP's main issue: fraud. But Frederiksen says there is an awful lot of time before the election, and other new issues could surface.
