2018 Minnesota midterm election results
Live: Results update about every 30 seconds
Incumbents are marked with *
Three of Minnesota's four executive branch offices don't have incumbents in 2018, making for an exciting election season. Results for those races are below, as well as judicial branch contests, all of which are nonpartisan. Most are uncontested.
Governor
After a wild primary season in this open race for Minnesota's top executive, Tim Walz and Jeff Johnson have run relatively uneventful campaigns with lots of debates. Walz has generally led in polling and has raised more money, but those indicators didn't prevent Johnson from walloping Pawlenty in the primary.

Attorney general
U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, who has represented Minnesota's Fifth District for nearly 12 years, has had a tough opponent in Doug Wardlow, a former state representative. Both have faced allegations of unsavory conduct, and polling has flip-flopped in response.
