The 2024 Minnesota House of Representatives election was held in the U.S. state of Minnesota on November 5, 2024, to elect members to the House of Representatives of the 94th Minnesota Legislature. Primaries took place on August 13, 2024.[1]

In the previous legislature, the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL) leveraged their existing trifecta to enact significant legislative reforms, including paid family leave, universal free school meals, a progressive child tax credit, increased sales and gas taxes for housing and transportation respectively, codified abortion rights, established a commission to redesign the state flag, and eliminated public university tuition for families earning under $85,000. The slim majorities held by the DFL were maintained by narrow victories in key battleground districts. They won control of the chamber following the 2018 election and entered this cycle with a majority of 5 seats. [2]

The DFL lost 3 seats in Greater Minnesota to the Republicans, resulting in a tie with both parties winning 67 seats.[3] Two seats, in Saint Cloud and Shakopee, were won by the DFL within the 0.5% margin eligible for a state-funded recount which can be requested after results are certified by the state Canvassing board on November 21.[4]

District 14A includes about half of St. Cloud and the cities of St. Joseph and St. Augusta. The district has experienced significant demographic changes due to an influx of immigrants, particularly from East Africa, in the last decade. About 68% of residents are non-Hispanic White, 20% are Black or African American, and 5% are Hispanic or Latino.[86]

First-term representative Bernie Perryman won the 2022 election over her DFL opponent by 199 votes. Perryman is a small business owner and chair of the St. Cloud Chamber of Commerce. She was also a regional vice president for Anheuser-Busch for 20 years.[87]
