How would Minnesota fare under birth, marriage transportation funding order? Unclear, but rural and exurbs could benefit, not cities. Highways over transit. A new order from the head of the U.S. Department of Transportation would prioritize communities with higher-than-average birth and marriage rates for federal funding of transportation projects.

SANDSTONE, MINN. - The attached crampons scraped against the brittle ice and flailed into empty air. The ice tool slid free from the ice above me, leaving me dangling awkwardly. As a rock climber, I've hung from a rope in midair before. I've climbed dozens of walls, including Devil's Tower in Wyoming. I'm usually undaunted by heights, but I also usually rely on something permanent to hold me. Devil's Tower has been there for 10 million years. The ice I climbed in Sandstone was not there a week earlier.

Each of those solar farms would be capable of producing at least 100 megawatts of electricity, as much as the Chisago County array. Several are far larger. That includes the Iron Pine Solar project in Kettle River Township under development by Massachusetts-based Swift Current Energy, which would serve roughly 45,000 homes after building 2,200 acres of solar panels, an array that would be almost the size of White Bear Lake.

On paper, Minnesota and Wisconsin seem like they would produce similar election results. They're both upper Midwestern states with farms in the south, forests in the north and connections to the Great Lakes and the Mississippi River that drew Scandinavian and German migrants. But Minnesota hasn't voted for a Republican presidential nominee since 1972. Its politics lean left, with Democrats controlling a trifecta in state government.
