    Northfield is progressive or the whole area? I would think you go 5 minutes in any direction and that sentiment would change.

      There are plenty of MAGAS around. My old suburban district used to vote republican by a decent margin. That’s changed and we’ve elected Democrat to us house for a few cycles. But that democrat was Dean Philips. Northfield is about about 30 minutes out of the metro and is going to be very maga around it.

        I know where Northfield is which is why I was asking. I grew up in that part of Minnesota and figured that area would mostly still be rural red.

        I’m familiar with Northfield but I’m also familiar with Randolph, Elko/New Market, Farmington and those areas don’t scream progressive to me which is why I was curious.

          No, they’re not. They’re all a lot more rural. I don’t think many people consider Northfield because it’s out of the way and off the freeway (and surrounded by nothing), which is one of the reasons I think it is the way it is hahaha
