State House: District 45A

House of Representatives District 45A candidates running in the general election:

  • Rep. Andrew Myers, Republican

  • Tracey Breazeale, Democrat

Analysis from MPR News senior politics reporter Dana Ferguson:

Near the shores of Lake Minnetonka, Republican Rep. Andrew Myers is trying to keep hold of his suburban House seat. The first-term lawmaker is facing Democrat Tracey Breazeale in a district that has recently flipped back and forth between Republicans and Democrats. The region is also getting special attention this election cycle because voters will cast ballots in a winner-takes-the-majority special election for a state Senate seat. Democrat Kelly Morrison previously held the District 45 Senate seat but stepped down to run for Congress. Independent expenditure groups and political parties have spent more than $273,000 in the House 45A contest.
