Democrats have officially regained control of the Minnesota Senate with DFL Sen. Doron Clark being sworn-in Monday.

Sen. Doron Clark’s swearing-in breaks the Senate tie and triggers a heated discussion over dissolving the power-sharing agreement

The Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party will have a majority in the Minnesota Senate once again after their candidate won a special election in a Minneapolis district on Tuesday. Candidate Doron Clark held an overwhelming lead in election results late Tuesday in a DFL-dominated district.

DFLer Doron Clark was elected to the Minnesota Senate in a special election Tuesday for a heavily blue district covering northeast Minneapolis. The result officially breaks a 33-33 tie between Republicans and Democrats in the Senate.

Doron Clark, the winner of last week's Senate District 60 special election in Minneapolis, took the oath of office on Monday, returning a one-seat majority to the DFL.
