No, you can't just look at 1 election, here is how Minnesota has voted relative to Wisconsin in every election going back to 1992 which was arguably the beginning of the current alignment.

1992:D+7.3
1996:D+5.8
2000:D+2.2
2004:D+3.1
2008:R+3.7
2012:D+0.8
2016:D+2.3

One could say MN and WI have actually converged since the 1990's when the differences were bigger, since 2000 every election has seen WI and MI be within 4% of each other and in 2016 MN was as democratic compared to WI as it had been in 2000 indicating no evidence of divergence.
