The polls closed about fifteen minutes ago. Results will be coming in through news venues; they can also be found here at the Minnesota Secretary of State's office.
Dale from Cornerhouse Comments writes in an email that came in at 7:57 p.m.
I just voted about 30 minutes ago and in Luverne's SE precinct where I live the unofficial report is about 5% turnout. The election official also said that some of the other precincts might be at 7%. Not too much excitement here in Luverne.
We'll see how much excitement there is in the rest of the district and state. As loyal readers will recall, we have thought that Brian Davis will win the primary; however, friends and acquaintances with stronger political resumes than ours have thought other wise.
Whatever the result, now the real fun begins.
UPDATE: So far, four precincts (.53%) in the First have reported results to the SOS office (no idea where the early reporting precincts are precincts are in the western part of the district):
| Independence | Candidate | Totals | Pct | Graph |
| GREGORY MIKKELSON | 4 | 100.00 |  | |

| DICK DAY | 9 | 18.00 | | |
