Elections
2013
Strand ran for election in the special election for Minnesota House of Representatives District 19A. The seat was vacant following Terry Morrow's (D) resignation in order to accept a job in Chicago as legislative director at the Uniform Law Commission. Morrow announced that he would be resigning his seat, which he won re-election to on November 6, 2012, on January 7, 2013. Strand was defeated by Clark Johnson in the Democratic primary on January 29. Johnson was endorsed by the party convention, but due to the late timing of the convention, all candidates were still in the primary.[2][3][1][4]
