No matter what the DFL tries to say, remember that this happened. Multiple progressive campaigns spent months organizing and beat Frey so bad he staged a failed walk out and subsequently had to manipulate the state party into overturning the clear result. This can happen again in November.

Just had to drop off an Elliott sign at this location because signs were again stolen from the same place where this hateful graffiti was posted.

Order an Elliott sign to show this shit is not welcome in Ward 1: www.elliottpayne.org/yard-sign-re...

We used to own the house next to ours and participated in the Stable Homes program. The inspector who signed off on the house being ready for move in SPECIFICALLY said that a fixture on the exterior needed a lightbulb "in case the mayor wants to come by for a photo." He uses the program for clout.

If I’m reading Kyle right, Frey admits failing to issue 100 housing vouchers *that are funded this year because he wants to kill the program next year.* (This is not Stable Schools, but for single folks.) This is unallotment Trump-style, especially since county/MPHA are in.
Friction point: In August, to remedy Stable Homes Stable Schools' $3.2 million projected shortfall, Frey proposed canceling another promising anti-homelessness initiative to provide 100 emergency housing vouchers for chronically unsheltered individuals and families. • Many City Council members believe this is needed just as urgently, and the council earmarked the funding last year to revive the pandemic-era program "that had incredibly successful outcomes at long-term housing stability," Ward 2 representative Robin Wonsley wrote in a newsletter. Yes, but: No vouchers have been issued yet, so Frey administration officials decided it would be irresponsible to begin a new anti-homelessness initiative - promising though it may be - with an existing program short on funds.

Has voted from Ward 3 since 2017, constantly talks about how bad the Ward and city is, and then won’t respond to voter guides. It’s clear Brian Strahan has no respect for Ward 1 residents. sahanjournal.com/democracy-po...
Brian Strahan didn’t respond to the survey

Minneapolis deserves a champion for working people.

This is our opportunity to build a city where every single resident can thrive. I can’t wait to cast my ballot for my friend and colleague, Omar Fateh, as my first choice for mayor by November 4th, and I hope you will join me.

Great wknd canvassing for @elliottpayne.org . A common theme I've noticed is how appreciative my neighbors are of his responsiveness and willingness to hear their concerns. So many people I've met door-knocking talk about the one-on-one conversations they've had with our dedicated council member.

It’s truly wild to watch people staunchly maintain that it doesn’t even matter if they live in Ward 3 as long as it’s “northeast”

Brian Strahan supporters are making the case on the I Love NE FB group (the bad one) to vote for Brian because he’s liked by republicans. When the person initially making this point tried to then distance it from saying Trump supporters like him, the Trump supporting moderator confirmed it.
Jill Davis: “Conor Hesch Sounds like you like Brian. But the fact remains, he has not lived in Ward 1 until the last month. He has not been upfront about his residency. Quite honestly, I don't find it a bonus point to have Republicans supporting your candidate.” Anonymous member 619: “Conor Hesch Wow the Trump voters like him? He's perfect for our city council then?” Conor Hesch: “Anonymous member 619 | doubt Trump-fans like Brian but I know some moderate republicans who do.” Katrina Johnson Moderator: “Conor Hesch This Trump fan likes him.”

I also read in the thread many excuses and minimization of the importance of honest, clear and transparent communication regarding their candidate.

What is up with mayor-aligned candidates who only JUST moved into the districts they hope to represent? And why are people buying their bullshit? How can you represent a district where you have no history, no connection, no community? Who are they really there to serve?

This morning antisemitic threats were made at Temple Israel. This follows the racist & islamophobic threats in our Ward last night and a fire last week at Alhikma Islamic Center mosque.

Just delivered a sign for someone who requested it because their landlord put up a Strahan sign. This shows the choice we have this election.

Elect someone who fights for renters who actually live here, or elect someone that voted in Ward 3 in January 2025 that’s having landlords put up his signs.
