MN House Republicans override Simon, declare a quorum [RAW]
After Secretary of State Steve Simon sent the House into recess after saying there wasn't a quorum presence, the 67 Republicans present moved to remove Simon and instate Paul Anderson to take the roster. Anderson then declared there was a quorum, and Republicans voted Simon's adjournment out of order. Republicans proceeded with business, with no Democrats in the chamber. Democrats had made good on their promise not to show up to the first day of the Minnesota Legislature.
