What the polls show

Republicans have not won a statewide race in Minnesota since 2006, but there's a good chance that an expected "red wave" Tuesday brings an end to that streak.

A recent KSTP/SurveyUSA poll finds that Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison's Republican opponent, Jim Schultz, leads him by 49 percent to 42 percent. Another 9 percent of voters remain undecided, the poll finds.

Julie Blaha is also behind her Republican opponent, Ryan Wilson, in recent polls.

Below are the candidates that will appear on all ballots in Minnesota. For a complete list of elections on your local ballot, use the Minnesota sample ballot tool.
