Results Starting To Come In From Tuesday's Election Day

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – The results are starting to come in.

It was Election Day in Minnesota Tuesday, and while it was an off-year around 100 school districts had levies that were being voted on.

While some districts still have not reported results,  bond issues passed in Fridley, Farmington, Lakeville, Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan, Richfield and many more. The money will help pay for teacher salaries, utility bills and other basics.

A few cities did have political chairs that needed to be filled.

In St. Paul, five incumbents will keep their seats on the city council but Ward 2 is still too close to call. Rebecca Noecker has a slight edge over Darren Tobolt, but it could be days before it's clear which one of them will replace a retiring Dave Thune.

As usually happens with off years, turnout was low Tuesday.

Only 44,000 out of the more than 1.5 million registered voters, or right around 2.5 percent, voted.

To see other results, and keep track of votes still being decided, visit the Minnesota Secretary of State online.
