Field Set for District 47A Special Election as Three DFL Candidates Enter Race

With Sen. Amanda Hemmingsen-Jaeger’s election, her vacant House seat in District 47A will now be filled by voters from South Maplewood and eastern Woodbury.

The special election is scheduled for Jan. 27 so that the new representative will be present when the legislative session begins.

Three district residents have decided to run for the seat. Since they all filed as members of the DFL, there will be a primary held on Dec. 16. All of them are first-time candidates who will also be vetted by the Democratic-Farmer-Labor party at its endorsing convention the evening of Dec. 3.

The candidates are: Shelley Buck, David Azcona and Juli Servatius.
