Going into the election, the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party is defending a majority of 34 out of 67 seats, after winning control of the chamber in 2022.
The last election in 2022 resulted in the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party attaining a majority in the chamber for the first time since 2012, gaining the DFL a trifecta.[3] Minnesota Senate seats follow a 2,4,4 term length schedule;[4] there is no regularly-scheduled Minnesota Senate election in 2024.[5]
