It was an honor to join with fellow Labor and DFL endorsed park board candidates to officially file for office yesterday!

It’s been great knowing there’s a team of us running to make sure parks are for people, and we’re committed to leading MPRB in a positive direction.

Mayor Jacob Frey has built a strong base among Somali voters, but Omar Fateh is a prominent Somali politician who has advocated for the community at the Legislature. Headshot of Joey Peters.

As the first Somali-American and Muslim ever elected to the Minnesota Senate, I understand intimately how much representation matters. Somali residents deserve a Mayor that listens to the needs of the community and delivers solutions. 🧵

YouTube video by Wedge LIVE! Jazz Hampton: Jacob Frey's failure to work collaboratively has him resorting to vetoes too often

Jazz Hampton, responding to the same question, says Frey's overreliance on vetoes is a symptom of his failure to work effectively and collaboratively on the front end — like a paratrooper who is constantly using his reserve parachute.

YouTube video by Wedge LIVE! DeWayne Davis: Jacob Frey is isolated — no relationship with city, county, state leaders

I thought this was a pretty compelling answer from DeWayne Davis to the question, how do you convey the problem of Jacob Frey to your friends who don't think he's a problem?

Thanks to the 100+ who came to #mayorpalooza tonight. The spirit of fellowship - among the candidates, among the crowd - was fantastic, just a giant reaffirmation of what Minneapolis can be. Elections are competition but existence is cooperation, and it was nice to see the line between them thin.

There are fewer than 100 days left until the 2025 election and it’s going to take all hands on deck to elect a new mayor - one who will represent the interests of working families.

Title text: "Frey's Megadonors Gear Up" followed by the subtitle: "2025 Mayoral Fundraising Numbers: Jacob Frey has raised more than his three primary challengers combined." Below that is a pie chart with four sections, the largest is labeled, "Jacob Frey: $538,828"; the second-largest labeled, "Omar Fateh: $213, 161"; the second smallest labeled, "DeWayne Davis: $137,943" and the smallest labeled, "Jazz Hampton: $59,746" with a Mpls for the Many logo in the bottom right corner.

When you serve the interests of the wealthiest people in the city, it’s easier to raise money come election time.

Jacob Frey’s recent fundraising numbers shouldn’t come as a surprise, but they are a concern.

He’s raised more than his three closest challengers combined.

I'm so excited to join these fantastic candidates as we all fight for a better park system for everyone! We simply can't afford more corporate funded status quo park commissioners.

Tonight, my grandmother sadly passed on. As is custom in my faith, her funeral will be tomorrow. For those who were intending to come with me to file for office, we will reschedule for another day. Thank you for your understanding during this time of mourning for my family.

Fixed.

I’m proud of the broad coalition we’ve built – teachers, transit riders, young people, immigrants and long-time DFLers – who are done with Mayor Frey’s broken promises and fed up with politics as usual. Watch my full interview with @majorityreport.bsky.social at www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeQO...

While many want to call my ideas too extreme or too radical, I’ve gotten them done by building broad coalitions we need to succeed – and persuading a Republican or two along the way. We can continue that momentum all the way to November. Donate today! fatehformayor.com/donate
