Jacob Frey wins third term as Minneapolis mayor
Minneapolis News ^ | November 05, 2025 | Jon Collins

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey was elected to a third term on Wednesday, according to unofficial results, fending off challengers who criticized his response to homeless encampments, the pace of police reform and what they described as a lack of collaboration with other elected officials like City Council members.

Frey’s main opponents were state Sen. Omar Fateh, minister DeWayne Davis and attorney Jazz Hampton. In ranked-choice voting, candidates with fewer votes are eliminated and their supporters’ votes are reallocated to their next choice.

In the end, the race came down to Frey and Fateh in a second round of tabulation in the ranked choice election.

Another case of a Hobson’s Choice, where both choices are bad ones.

There was not a single republican on the ballot.
I was forced to vote for Frey.

A small bit of good news. That Somali guy looked like he was inbred.

Thank goodness that bugeyed, low IQ, inbred, muzztard didn’t win. Maybe someone can now take a look at how he got in the country and whether or not he should stay.

Minneapolis has been under Democrat (DFL) control for forty plus years and it would be unlikely any Republican or even a moderate Democrat would stand a chance given the make up of the population. The City will continue its slow collapse with high crime and businesses fleeing to the suburbs. If Fatah had won the collapse would have just accelerated. The best hope for Minnesota is for Canada to annex both Minneapolis and St. Paul or the western part of the state join North and South Dakota.

Something about the weird eye sockets and triangle shaped head, reminds me of a hybrid human-preying mantis.

But the Somalis breed like cockroaches and will soon overtake all of Minnesota. This is what the democrats wanted.

Whether it’s him or someone else, Minneapolis will fall, just as did Dearborn. This is a temporary delay

Good to see that the Sammy Chimpanzee who loves Somalia but hates America didn’t win.
