DFLer Xp Lee wins special election for Melissa Hortman's former House seat

BROOKLYN PARK, Minn. — Democrat Xp Lee has decisively won the race for Minnesota House, three months after House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman, who held that seat for more than a decade, was killed.
Lee won against Republican Ruth Bittner on Tuesday for House District 34B, which covers parts of Brooklyn Park and Champlin in Hennepin County, and part of Coon Rapids in Anoka County.  The district regularly votes blue.
