Minneapolis Democratic Mayor Jacob Frey wins re-election after fending off socialist challenger
Democratic socialist Omar Fateh mounted a progressive challenge against Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey with an endorsement from Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn.
A Minneapolis City Council that has in recent years sparred with incumbent Mayor Jacob Frey was able to maintain its progressive majority Tuesday night, despite a loss in the western part of the city.
Mayor Jacob Frey had 42%, followed by state Sen. Omar Fateh with 32%. Counting of second-choice votes will start Wednesday morning.
