At her election night victory party, Amy Klobuchar told supporters it was a hard race, with outside money and "ugly and hateful attacks" meant to divide the state. She said dark money lost even though her campaign was outspent two to one on ads, and that "a Packers fan cannot buy our Governor's seat, even if that guy is a billionaire."

Make no mistake, this was a hard election. Outside money flooding our state, ugly and hateful attacks that were meant to divide us. But I think we learned a few things tonight. For one, we learned that a Packers fan cannot buy our Governor's seat, even if that guy is a billionaire. We learned that dark money doesn't win even when we were outspent two to one on ads. And we learned that you can't buy a seat when the people of Minnesota vote and when the people of Minnesota show up. And you showed up Minnesota.
