I'm not surprised at all. Minnesota has probably the deepest Democratic roots of any state in the country over the last 50 years. It might flip for the Republicans in presidential elections of the future and probably elect senators and governors down the line but the effect of the Humphrey generation and the Democratic-Farmer/Labor is pretty much going to stand the test of time at this point. A bit like the Kennedy's in Massachusetts but a different song of the same genre. I don't think it will ever fully leave the Democratic party until it's firmly given a reason to.
