Jacob Frey wins re-election as mayor of Minneapolis
- In Minneapolis, Mayor Jacob Frey won reelection on Wednesday, securing his third term with 50% of the final ranked-choice vote.
- The city's complex ranked-choice voting required extra retabulating, delaying results after the Nov. 4, 2025 election, while Sen. Omar Fateh led a strong socialist-aligned challenge with DeWayne Davis and Jazz Hampton trailing.
- Fateh’s campaign staff included Anya Smith-Kooiman, who posted Israel `does not have a "right" to exist` and `must be dismantled`, drawing rebuke from Sen. Amy Klobuchar.
- Frey’s win signals Minneapolis voters’ wariness of socialist candidates, contrasting with Zohran Mamdani’s Tuesday victory in New York City.
- Tensions between mainstream Democratic incumbents and socialist challengers surfaced over divisive views on Israel, prompting public rebukes and concern from Jewish community leaders.
