Frey campaign fudged it up so bad they lost Schultz. Someone wake Larry Jacobs.
David Schultz, one of the two political pundits mainstream media talks to in Minnesota, is skeptical of Frey's convention tactics and challenge and notes the historic nature of Omar Fateh's victory.
the jacob frey campaign has filed a challenge with the DFL over omar fateh’s endorsement, laying out their issues with the electronic voting system
If the guy who writes my favorite Frey PAC email blasts was at the mic calling for a quorum check as the Frey campaign is texting supporters to leave the convention, am I obligated to play dumb about it?
Delegate Chris Kluthe, the "All of Mpls" Frey PAC guy, steps to the mic to say he thinks we don't have a quorum anymore. Frey campaign pulled their people off the floor.
I survived two Ward 10 conventions in the span of two years. I was at the Storming of the Stage. I saw an honest-to-God Mondale get shoved in Ward 7 this year. I watched the purge in Ward 2. You have nothing to teach me about the norms and procedures of political conventions.
This photo provides no information regarding quorum in district 4. At 10:03 all voting was over. I'm not in my seat in this photo, I'm in front of the stage and Omar Fateh is giving a speech. But 30 minutes earlier, I was in my seat, voting in district 4. conradzbikowski.org/updates/thank-…

Probably too late for interested parties to protest the results of the ward 7 convention. In my mind, we didn't reach quorum for the number of Mondales getting shoved. I only saw one. We needed to see half a dozen Mondales get shoved.
"frankly I was horrified by the process" is what I say after every DFL convention, even when I like the result. I can admit that because I'm the last honest person left in Minneapolis.
Transportation planning superstar Allan Klugman hasn't aged at all since 2019, but recent photo evidence indicates I died of natural causes in 2023.
