Biography

Dave Senjem is a former Rochester City Council member and a 20 year Minnesota state senator, per KTTC. He told KTTC his focus is on costs the state has shifted onto counties, including Medicaid and nutrition programs. He is described by KTTC as the sitting District 2 commissioner, but that could not be confirmed against an official county roster in this review, so incumbency is recorded as false. No campaign website was found as of September 6, 2026.
