In 2010 MN fought hard to count enough to keep from losing a seat, and they were successful. The divided government would have resulted in a court-drawn for . 2020 is very likely to see MN lose that seat, and may well still have a Dem trifecta. If so, the suburban counties will be proportionally larger than they were in 2010, and that will expand the size of the outstate CDs.

Another thought for the Dems in 2020 is that Peterson may have retired. He's 70 now and would be 78 for the next new map. One option is to make that district more R to shore up the Duluth district as more D, and so protect it from suburban swings such as in 2010.
