I’ve been asked: How could someone as hated and unpopular as Frey keep winning? Well, establishment power is hard to defeat. It takes trying even after defeat, getting up off the ground and fighting these smug, self-serving motherfuckers again and again.

My gut reaction, looking at this map, is the people who encounter the homelessness epidemic everyday voted to remove Jacob from office.
Those who don’t encounter this problem day to day had other concerns not addressed by the other campaigns.

I know some folks were asking for something like this (@meshm.bsky.social iirc) So I made a quick dot density map of the first choice Minneapolis mayoral results. This allows you to see two things that choropleth maps can't show... umn.maps.arcgis.com/apps/mapview...

Over 50% of voters’ first choice was someone to the left of Frey. Bummer that Frey still wins despite RCV.
Frey led Fateh in first-choice votes Tuesday night, but second-choice votes had to be tabulated Wednesday to determine the winner.

As long as I’m firing off, cancelable takes, Frey has a better chance of winning by double digits than losing. Brings me no joy etc etc.

there are actually a lot of people I want to get cancer and I'm not really embarrassed to admit it anymore
An acquaintance of mine once told me he went to a dinner at Adams’ house and it was all men and the topic of discussion was about whether rape should be legal so while I don’t want anyone to get cancer i don’t think raging misogynists should get special help either

This is so badass and beautiful and one of the greatest American political ads I have ever seen. A frontal engagement with bigotry, and completely beyond the script of approved political discourse in this nation. May he be protected and kept safe.

Proposal, have the state setup a company (say MNRail) to purchase all the trackage in the state as well as the line from Sandstone to Superior.
Fund services to connect MSP w/ DUL, ROC, STC, Kato, etc and allow it to be used by open access operators. We can have a true rail system here if we try.

In addition to "just give ppl housing ffs" I would love to see MNDOT and the city build small storefronts under overpasses and rent them out super cheap, like what exists in Japan (and once existed in Chicago under the el). Bring back the eyes on the street to desolate spaces!
