Norton is in her fifth term. House DFL Minority Leader Paul Thissen, DFL-Minneapolis, praised Norton for her legislative work on driver safety and autism, as well as Rochester's Destination Medical Center. She currently sits on Greater Minnesota economic development, higher education and transportation committees.
Norton won without an opponent in 2014.
