Democrats hold 46 of 67 Senate seats in Minnesota but Humphrey Institute's Larry Jacobs says the GOP has a strong shot to take four seats .

They are:

Lisa Fobbe, 16A, against Dave Brown in GOP district

Rick Olseen, MN 17, against Sean Nienow in GOP district -

DFL Kevin Vickerman running against GOP's Doug Magnus in MN22A

In MN 28, the retirement of Steve Murphy has set up a contest of DFL-er Joe Fricke against GOP Red Wing Mayor John Howe, Jacobs adds.

We're making it easy, by the way, to track Minnesota House and Minnesota Senate results.

Stay tuned. And post below and tell us what you're seeing tonight in your part of Minnesota.
