Minnesota Now is two hours of special election coverage this Wednesday — with host Cathy Wurzer and special co-host Brian Bakst — featuring election results, reaction and analysis of the presidential and local races across Minnesota.

The Minnesota House is in a virtual deadlock with the DFL and GOP each winning or leading in 67 seats — which could be the first even divide in the state house since 1979.

Meanwhile, the DFL maintains control in the state Senate after winning a close special election. We hear from senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy and Secretary of State Steve Simon.

Gov. Tim Walz will be heading back to Minnesota after his unsuccessful turn in the national spotlight — we get reaction from former Gov. Tim Pawlenty.

Plus, we hear from the Mayor-elect of St. Cloud, who won by just over 1,000 votes.

Our Gen Z political panelists join for their takes.

And MPR News reporter Mark Zdechlik joins the show live from Washington, D.C., where Vice President Kamala Harris was scheduled to give a concession speech Wednesday afternoon.

Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation.
