Locally, we've got the Minnesota 5th, which looks like it's going to produce the first Muslim Representative, ever, Keith Ellison (the race is his to lose). The Senate race is between Mark Kennedy (essentially a party-line walker) and Amy Klobuchar, who's been a good state attorney general (I think she's ahead by 20+ points). The Rep. seat that Kennedy is leaving to run for Senator is the 6th, which is a statistical dead heat, though I think the Demcratic candidate, Patty Wetterling (the first person in the country to run Foley related TV ads) will probably pull it out.
