“At the 11th hour, CVS claims that they have inklings of a plan for this property.” “CVS has done nothing for years. The clock has run out.” @mollycoleman.bsky.social absolutely hits the nail on the head, gets 7-0 vote to demolish CVS. This is a HUGE step for Midway & I’m so happy Molly is our CM!

The CVS on Snelling and University hired a lawyer who used to work for the city council on the DAY of their hearing.

Thank you for everything, Mayor Carter. @melvincarter.bsky.social

St. Paul voters remember Sharon Anderson.

HAPPY ELECTION DAY BEST DAY OF THE YEARRRR make your voice heard today and get out to vote!!

Reminder that in Minnesota, you have the right to vote on the same day you register. We are not a voter ID state. You can vote if you've lived in Minnesota for 20 days and are old enough: www.sos.mn.gov/elections-vo... Your neighbor/friend can also vouch for you.

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!

i hate minneapolis politics halloween, what do you mean you’re all taylr??

Didn’t realize that a city where crime is significantly down and infrastructure investment is significantly up classified as “limping.” I’ll be a St. Paul defender until I die.

Great things happening on the other site. “Assman” calls other man “smelly”

In our final installment of Spiced Up Civics for this year, I got the chance to sit down with @omarfatehmn.com, who is running to be the next mayor of Minneapolis. Go check it out, and remember to vote by November 4th! 🔥 youtu.be/TjGCeemTwfc?...

Hey @tmoz.bsky.social @charliestdennis.bsky.social @tombasgen.bsky.social , there's a bridge brigade being organized for 10/27 over 35E on St Clair Ave. at 5 PM. If you could help let folks know, it would be appreciated.

we lost paul and sheila wellstone 23 years ago today. can never forget how bleak it felt to receive this news in my high school classroom, less than 2 weeks before the election. 10th graders knew how bad it would be that he was gone, because he had voted no against war in iraq

I just like to see who can take the heat. 🤷‍♂️

I’m so excited to announce that Spiced Up Civics has just dropped our first interview with the mayoral contenders! Check out the interview on our YouTube to learn more about @dewayneforminneapolis.com as he eats locally sourced hot wings! youtu.be/1B14DYswEYY

As I prepare to cast my first ballot this year, I am increasingly heartened to see people step up to lead this city with love and compassion. Despite disagreements, you can tell that we have 4 candidates that care about this city and it’s people. Way to go, St. Paul!!

Coach Phee has CLOCKED IN!!

If I were there in Phoenix and saw how many times AT was fouling Phee without getting fouls, they would have to eject me too. #LynxIn5

Team Cheryl all day.

How are we holding up, Lynx fans???

Sports curses aren’t real but Minnesota sports are cursed.

A student from my old school is missing. Please do what you can to spread the word and help find Ana.

Alright, A’ja, Imma let you finish, but Napheesa had one of the greatest seasons of all time!!

I watched the STP Mayoral Forum tonight. I listened to 3 candidates that I found worthy of being ranked. I look forward to ranking them in November. Also, you can’t love St. Paul if you don’t love it’s residents. ICE has no place in STP, and Mike Hilborn has no place in City Hall.

Ilhan Omar's district (MN 5th) has a foreign-born population of 14%. The national average is 13.8%. She won her last re-election with 74.4% of the vote.

I just got back from a group trip to the BWCA, and oh how lucky am I to have had such an experience. This land is beautiful. This land is sacred. This land is worth protecting. And if you don’t think so, I invite you to go give it a look yourself.

Proud to knock in the weather tonight for the Yes for SPPS campaign! Students, teachers, and families alike can all agree: our future is worth investing in. I hope you’ll join me in supporting this important initiative! yesforspps.com

I’ll be voting YES on both ballot questions in Saint Paul this year!

🧵 🙌 Proud to join unions & other community orgs to launch the Vote Yes for a Fairer St. Paul campaign! 🗳️ This November, St. Paul voters have the opportunity to pass Administrative Citations — so corporate landlords & greedy bosses can’t keep breaking the law without consequences. (1/3)

I sat down with Dan Engelhart, who’s running for Minneapolis Park Board in District 1. Go check it out! youtu.be/tp0VAk_UiaE?...

Protect MN and Moms Demand Action are coordinating a community vigil at 8:00pm tonight at Lynnhurst Park, 1345 W Minnehaha Pkwy. Please join us.

Frey: And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.

Joint Statement from Council Members Koski and Palmisano this is a good show of unity from two CMs who have certainly had their differences recently

Tell your family you love them. Tell your friends you care about them. Tell a stranger you value them. Let them know. We all need to hear it today.

Oh and by the way, we will win this in November.

I was proud to see @omarfatehmn.com earn the DFL endorsement on July 19th, and I'll be even more proud to see him win the mayoral election on November 4th. The people of Minneapolis deserve better, join me on the doors. mobilize.us/omarfatehformayor

Hi there! We're neighbors in Minneapolis who are so excited to rank Omar Fateh, DeWayne Davis & Jazz Hampton for mayor that we made a zine about it! Inside, you'll find information about ranked choice voting, the candidates, & why it's time for change. Download, read & print: bio.link/mpls2025

Now that Ward 4 voting has closed, I can finally start taking about my new local election hobbyhorse: In Saint Paul in November, we are all going to vote Yes on the Referendum question on Administrative Citations so that we can finally be normal like every other city in Minnesota

good luck to @logankortgard.bsky.social @rudyfunkmeyer.bsky.social @charliestdennis.bsky.social and everyone on that slate today at the young DFL convention! i should've gone to live tweet it since i'm too old to be a member by like 2 years lmao

I’m so glad to announce the Spiced Up Civics now has its own Facebook page in addition to YouTube! Go give us a follow! www.facebook.com/share/1H4pSA...

My contribution to Saint Paul’s Ward 4 special election: As Chair of SD64 DFL I worked with a W4 precinct chair to make a resource page available for voters. Check out candidate responses to our questionnaire centered on leadership and governance & community care. 👇 www.sd64dfl.org/ward-4-speci...

Saint Paul Ward 4 candidate episodes continue. Today's conversation is with Chauntyll Allen.

Though she doesn’t align with all of my values on housing and density, I’ll proudly rank Chauntyll Allen second (she’s incredibly strong on public safety and her community roots). Cole would be third and Caroyln would be fourth for me. Please vote!!! END/ www.ramseycounty.us/residents/el...

Hats off to Omar Fateh on getting the DFL Mayoral endorsement. We will now enter the phase of bitter tears in the newspaper from the vanquished. They will neglect to mention that the vanquished created an entire PAC specifically to compete in the process they will now decry as “broken”.

these people make me increasingly grateful for director kershaw

“Grandpa, where were you when MAGA was gutting healthcare and kidnapping people off the streets?” “I was in the trenches, kid. Yelling at city employees for building a bike lane."

Last month, I joined @charliestdennis.bsky.social for Spiced Up Civics, a video podcast where I answered questions about my run for Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board while Charlie and I shared hot wings with Minnesota and Wisconsin hot sauces! Check out the full episode! youtu.be/q2ij_yrVC6A?...

When I make seed art, I tend to honor figures in my life that inspire me. Here is “Hero”, which honors Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman. She was a hero for Minnesotans, and we owe her enormous gratitude. 🤍

I ate some really hot wings with Councilwoman Katie Cashman. Check it out now! @katiecashman.bsky.social EPISODE FIVE: Councilwoman Katie Cashman, Candidate for City Council Ward 7 youtu.be/6g-48tooOx8

This was a great event by @fairvotemn.bsky.social because it allowed people to ask dynamic questions and got candidates to answer without relying on their stump speeches or talking points. It would be great to see people able to participate in other parts of the city.
