Today, we have the opportunity to exercise one of our most fundamental civic duties—voting. We get to decide the future of our communities. Make your voice heard. Polls are open until 8 p.m. Visit mnvotes.org. Thank you to all of the volunteers, poll workers, and staff who make Election Day happen.

This dude voted for @melvincarter.bsky.social & Yes on both questions

Eight years ago, my dad and I heard about a man named Melvin’s vision for this city. Eight years later, I got to vote for him to further that vision. Make a plan to vote by November 4th! I ranked @melvincarter.bsky.social first, and voted YES on both ballot questions!

SHORT VERSION: I’m voting yes on both ballot questions & @melvincarter.bsky.social for Mayor. LONG VERSION: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Does it matter that the "critics" here are bad-faith fascists and the criticism they are making is laughably false?

We don't normally do this, but our family would like to formally endorse @melvincarter.bsky.social for reelection. Mayor Carter has successfully guided Saint Paul through a series of unprecedented crises and made our city safer and more humane in the process.

📱 | St. Paul, Minnesota (2025) Thank you to the laudable public servants in our city @melvincarter.bsky.social @tristanvoegeli.bsky.social @rymancurtis.bsky.social

big day of yard sign delivery from como to the west side — and very proud to early vote for my mayor, who’s standing up for gun sense even as his opponent garners support from far-right gun extremists

Great to join my friend melvincarter.bsky.social and neighbors in St. Paul today to hit the doors! Head to www.melvincarter.org to see how you can get involved—and remember to vote by Nov. 4th!

💪 This crew is out pounding the pavement & encouraging voters to support: ✅ Re-elect Mayor @melvincarter.bsky.social ✅ YES on Administrative Citations for a Fairer St. Paul ✅ YES for St. Paul Public Schools Make your plan to #BeAVoter by Nov. 4 at mnvotes.org!

Our work to restrict assault weapons and require all guns to have serial numbers isn’t going over well with the gun rights crew. #TheyNotLikeUs

Related tactic: "This is so divisive. I propose we unite the city by you stopping with your proposal for change that made the cranks so mad!"

If we're taking the ward 4 results as instructive of anything, the candidate who tried not picking a side on Summit finished third. Seems like a losing tactic. www.startribune.com/summit-avenu...

Thank you for coming out!

St. Paul! We've finally got an annoying Attack PAC in our election called Saint Paul Future Forward working for Rep Kaohly Her's mayoral bid. Names attached are Haley Cobb and Chris Haas who I vaguely remember from my time in Walz-land and state stuff. assets.ramseycountymn.gov/files/2025-1...

Check out our latest campaign ad, “#SquadGoals” — everything we do, we do it together! And don’t forget to vote Melvin Carter on or before November 4!

It was great to join Team Carter at their canvass launch today in Saint Paul!

The generals said "sir are you sure you want to fly the diarrhea bomber over the AI city with the nonsense billboards" and I said [zesty] we've got to shit the hell out of 'em. And no one has more loose stool than me. And actually that was very smart. Making myself the diarrhea president was smart.

Show me a time when government agents punished people just for not carrying papers, and I’ll show you profound human rights abuses.

We treat every non-fatal shooting in Saint Paul with the same urgency as a homicide. We’re solving more cases, cutting crime by double digits, and producing a record-low homicide rate—proving this action-driven approach creates safer outcomes.

Mayor Carter: What we’ve been told about poverty is a lie. Watch my full One Hour Detours conversation with St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter at the link in my bio.

Sen. Tina Smith is a fearless champion of our progressive values. I am so honored to have received her support for my reelection! @smith.senate.gov

Grateful to have Sen. @amyklobuchar.com’s endorsement of our re-election campaign. Through an era of chaos and division from DC, Sen. Klobuchar has been a steady champion and a fantastic partner for Saint Paul!

St. Paul was inspired by the "Denver Model" and created its own "Saint Paul Model" and brought their clearance rate from 37% in 2023 to 70.5% in 2024. In 2025, St. Paul is now trending to have a 30% reduction in shots fired and a 70% reduction in homicides. lims.minneapolismn.gov/Download/Fil...

American Christians deciding the Pope doesn't know the Bible because he said immigrants are human is the perfect summary of the evangelist movement

📣SUSTAIN SAINT PAUL CITY ENDORSMENTS 🧵: Sustain Saint Paul proudly endorses Mayor Melvin Carter III for Re-Election!

I’m voting for MC3. I’m real comfortable with that choice. But even if you don’t trust my read of the situation you can trust the read of the most humane, kind, and frankly politically sharp organization we have in this town. A lot of endorsements don’t mean much. This one does.

Thank you for your leadership, @faithinmn! I’m excited to continue our partnership to move Saint Paul forward!

Grateful to have the support of Lt. Gov. @peggyflanagan.bsky.social as we work to build a stronger, more equitable Saint Paul together! Thanks for your leadership and passion for children and families, Peggy!

So proud to have earned the support of our amazing @governorwalz.mn.gov! I am so excited to work beside you to ensure DFLers win up and down the ballot this November into next year!

So proud to support the amazing Vote Yes for a Fairer Saint Paul coalition who is working to pass administrative citations! This November, Vote Yes and Yes for Saint Paul!

Saint Paul: Early voting has started. It’s time for all of us to get out, vote, and make our voices heard so we can continue to move our city forward – together! Let’s go!

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

We’ve been living through 72 nonstop hours of this exact tweet

The time for inaction is over. We are moving forward in Saint Paul with decisive action to prevent gun violence. Minnesotans support the common sense protections proposed in our ordinance—state law blocks them. The moment preemption is lifted, Saint Paul will be ready.

Got @keithellison.bsky.social kicking off the @melvincarter.bsky.social door knock at Golden Thyme! Ward 4 Councilmembers past (Russ), present ( @mollycoleman.bsky.social) and fake (me) are here. Super broad support from Peggy, Tina, Clare, Garrison, and more! INFO: www.melvincarter.org/home

This morning we kicked off our 2025 field program in Rondo! Huge thanks to AG Keith Ellison and Councilmembers Saura Jost, @mollycoleman.bsky.social & @mattprivratsky.bsky.social for joining us. Let’s keep building a safer, stronger, more connected Saint Paul—one door at a time!

Everyone must do something to prevent #GunViolence. That includes us.

what about your personal history as an author makes you think that getting published is evidence of quality?

Congratulations to @mollycoleman.bsky.social for running an incredible, people powered campaign in Ward 4! Her victory is a testament to running a campaign on unapologetic, progressive policy that improves people’s lives.

#Leadership. Thank you, Senator!

Good morning, Ward 4! Happy Special Election Day! Vote Molly Coleman for City Council!

Fantastic crew showed up to knock doors with @mollycoleman.bsky.social today. Ward 4, you have just 3 more days until you can send this amazing leader to City Hall! Please go vote!

Thank you @melvincarter.bsky.social for stopping to say hi to St Paul @momsdemand.bsky.social volunteers in Mears Park for National Night Out.

National Night Out is a powerful reminder that one of our strongest safety strategies is about building trust, connections, and a shared sense of responsibility for each other. This is what our Saint Paul public safety looks like. This is what our Saint Paul community feels like.
