A Minnesota state senator arrested for burglary last year will not be expelled from the Minnesota Senate. A motion to expel DFL Senator Nicole Mitchell was set

A vote for a motion to expel embattled DFL Minnesota state Sen. Nicole Mitchell failed in the chamber on Monday.

Minnesota Senate Republicans tried to expel Sen. Nicole Mitchell, DFL-Woodbury, from the chamber Monday, arguing that her felony burglary charge restricts her from adequately representing her constituents and that the nature of the allegations are unbecoming of a Minnesota senator.
