I think Minnesota would also follow suit quite expediently.

minnesota would probably split, with the rural western half breaking off

which isn't necessarily a downside from your perspective

I'll be honest, I know very little about MN, just have a bunch of family and friends there (they have the largest Hmong population). However just from what I hear and have visited, MN sounds very similar to where I live in Central Cali.

I'm right on the SD/MN border and much of Western MN is not much different than Eastern SD/ND. They even had some politicians saber rattle about cutting free and joining SD a few years ago
