5. I couldn't find any Minnesota local trial court elections for this year at that site.

They have a caption for trial court elections but when you go to the drop-down menu to search for them, there aren't any listed. Minnesota's judicial elections take place in even-numbered years. "Appointed judges must stand for election district-wide in the next general election that is more than one year after the swearing-in date (Minnesota Constitution Article VI, § 8). An elected judge’s term is six years." https://mn.gov/governor/administration/judicialappointments/#:~:text=An%20attorney%20may%20become%20a,judge's%20term%20is%20six%20years. General elections are always in even-numbered years.
