In terms of own-goals, Walker's recount law sounds like the winner, although honestly I'm not sure how how warranted a recount is when one candidate wins by >10k votes (Evers won by ~30k votes in 2018).
But in terms of fairness, the MN law is absolutely ridiculous. Even putting aside that it may cost Democrats a House seat, the law is extremely unfair to both major party candidates, to the people of that district who will unnecessarily go without representation, and to the taxpayers who have to finance an unnecessary election.
Also, it's not a recent change, but while we're talking about terrible election laws, I'd like to throw in a mention for MS's absolutely awful quasi-electoral college system for statewide elections.
