My name is Soren Stevenson. I am a renter in the Lyndale neighborhood, a union member, and a survivor of police violence. I’m running for City Council in Ward 8 because my neighbors deserve a kinder, safer Minneapolis. That future isn’t just necessary - it’s within reach.

Happening tonight!
It's good that the DFL listening tour will happen mere blocks from George Floyd Square. We have a lot to talk about!
The DFL Listening Tour is the hottest event in town, and is moved to a larger venue to meet the demand.

Happy to welcome the @dfl.org to SD62 at Sabathani, on Nov. 13 at 6:30 PM. Show up to share the issues important to you with the state party.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

When Twin Cities DSA members voted to endorse @OmarFatehMN.com for mayor, we knew the task before us would be hard. Landlords, Wall Street developers & corporations like Lyft poured millions of dollars into this election to spread racist, Islamophobic lies to protect their profits.

Give it up for our 2025 Minneapolis City Council climate champions!!! Minneapolis has been and will continue to be a leader on climate action with support from these brilliant city councilors. Congrats @robin4mpls.bsky.social, @sorenwithward8.bsky.social, and @aishaforward10.com!

Congratulations to @sorenwithward8.bsky.social who was elected for the first time as Council Member in Ward 8.

After coming up just short in 2023, Soren Stevenson ran an incredible campaign to secure the progressive leadership Ward 8 has lacked for too long.

Jacob Frey is the headline in Minneapolis, but wouldn't want this result to go unnoticed!

@sorenwithward8.bsky.social Ran a super inspiring and energizing campaign and I can’t wait to be officially represented by him on our City Council! His thoughtful, inclusive, engaged, and progressive leadership is what this moment needs, locally and beyond.
We won! Thank you Ward 8! I am so ready to get to work

It also seems dumb in hindsight to try to negatively tie candidates to Wonsley. Sure seems like Wonsley is well liked and progressives all over the city recognize her skills and abilities.

In 2023, with a hint to the future, Soren said "We, neighbors, progressives, and Ward 8, will continue organizing for our shared values, and I know that a movement rooted in community will be even more powerful in 2025."

And he was right.🧵
