The question asks whether Democrats will sweep both the Minnesota Senate and Governor elections in 2026. Article NYT Minnesota shows the Senate race is a statistical tie between Democrat Peggy Flanagan and Republican Michele Tafoya, with both near 42% support, indicating no clear Democratic advantage. Article TIME article reports that Governor Tim Walz is dropping out, with Amy Klobuchar as the likely Democratic nominee, but the article does not provide polling data for the governor race or suggest a clear Democratic advantage. The other articles AP articleAP articleNYT JudgeReuters articleGuardian article are off-topic, covering Michigan infighting, a Texas-Texas ICE extradition case, and pro-Israel Democrats on a House panel, none of which provide relevant information on Minnesota elections. Since the Senate race is a toss-up and the governor race is uncertain after Walz's departure, the evidence does not strongly favors a Democratic sweep. The probability is below 0.45, leaning NO, because the only relevant polling shows a tie, and no article indicates a Democratic lead in either race. The resolution criteria require a sweep, which is unlikely given the close Senate contest and unknown governor dynamics. Thus, the probability is 0.35.
