Roosevelt. The 32 seats of Class 2 were contested in regular elections, and special elections were held to fill vacancies. The Great Depression continued and voters backed progressive candidates favoring Roosevelt's New Deal in races across the country. The Democrats gained 5 net seats during the election, and in combination with Democratic and Farmer–Labor interim appointments and the defection of George W. Norris from the Republican Party to become independent, the Republicans were reduced to 16 seats. The Democrats gained a further two seats due to midterm vacancies. The Democrats' 77 seats and their 62-seat majority remain their largest in history. This was the last of four consecutive election cycles where Republicans suffered losses due to the ongoing effects of the Great Depression. This was also the last Senate election cycle until 2012 in which a Democratic candidate who won two terms also made net gains in the Senate on both occasions.Although Roosevelt won a third term and fourth term, he lost Senate seats on both occasions. Additionally, this is the last time any party held three-fourths of all Senate seats. In contrast, this was the first time since 1930 (which also involved the Class 2 seats) where the Republicans were able to flip a Senate seat despite suffering net losses during this period. Gains, losses, and holds Retirements One Republican, one Farmer-Labor, and five Democrats retired instead of seeking re-election. StateSenatorReplaced by Colorado Edward P. Costigan Edwin C.

Benson Farmer-Labor Party Guy V. Howard Republican Party (Minnesota) 1936 United States Senate special election in Minnesota The election was held to fill the vacancy in the seat formerly held by Thomas D. Schall for the final two months of Schall's unexpired term. Governor Floyd B. Olson had appointed Elmer Benson to fill the seat in 1935, but this appointment was temporary and subject to a special election held in the next general election year thereafter—1936. Benson opted to run for governor instead of running for election to continue for the remainder of the term. No special primaries were held for the special election, and, among Minnesota's three major parties, only the Republican Party of Minnesota officially fielded a candidate—Guy V. Howard. Regardless of the absence of Farmer-Labor and Democratic nominees, Howard nevertheless faced a great degree of competition from independent candidates Nathaniel J. Holmberg, Andrew Olaf Devold, and John G. Alexander. The candidates were: John G. Alexander (I), Attorney and real estate manager Andrew Olaf Devold (I), Attorney, State Senator since 1919, former State Representative (1915–1919); a member of the Farmer-Labor Party of Minnesota and formerly a member of the Socialist Party of Minnesota N. J. Holmberg (I), Former State Senator (1915–1919) and State Representative (1907–1915); a member of the Republican Party of Minnesota Guy V.
