Democrats in the Minnesota House reports raising $812k in 2010 and reports having $773k in the bank. House Republicans have raised $542k in 2010 and have $702k in the bank.

Democrats have raised the bulk of their money from labor unions (AFSCME, Education Minnesota, IBEW) and Native American tribes (Shakopee, Prairie Island, etc.)

Republicans have raised the bulk of their money from Robert Cummins ($100k), former Target CEO Robert Ulrich, the JOBS political fund and the Minnesota Chamber.
