nope, Wisconsin is perfect. the cheese deters them away.

I disagree. I used to live down south, and I was bit many times. Today I was attacked by a group of ants who look remarkably the same, hurt the same, and apparently live in Wisconsin.

The easy answer is "Yes, there are ants in Minnesota." The hard answer is what TYPE of ant. The University of Minnesota is studying Carpenter Ants (and others), and there are a WIDE variety of ants in any area that is not actively hostile (like perma frost areas). They also often follow where man builds (like other insects) so there are several types indigineous and invaders.

There are no true fire ants in Pennsylvania. There are imported red ants that may incorrectly be identified as fire ants due to appearance, but a true fire ant stings while others only bite.

Fire ants are known to inhabit Iowa. Some species are able to withstand cold temperatures as low as the teens.
