After Minnesota voters handed DFLers control of the House, Senate and governor's office, lawmakers who are set to lead election and voting committees at the Capitol said they'll try to advance policies that had long hit a dead-end in the divided Capitol.That means plans to restore the right to vote to people convicted of felonies who've served their jail sentences, expand mail-in voting options and automatically register more young people to vote could have new life in the Legislature in 2023.Efforts to cast light on dark money coming into political campaigns and set up a statewide ranked-choice voting system could also come up for consideration.
