Minnesota's Supreme Court parsed constitutional wording about what makes up the Minnesota House as justices sorted today through an ongoing power struggle.
The definition is important as the high court decides how far to delve into a standoff that has the House operating with only one party present. The crux of the case is whether 67 members is sufficient to do anything or if 68 is needed for a quorum.
