Minneapolis DFL asks state party to reinstate endorsement of Omar Fateh for mayor
The Minneapolis DFL is asking the state party to reinstate its endorsement of State Senator Omar Fateh for mayor.
Fateh won the endorsement over incumbent mayor Jacob Frey at the Minneapolis DFL convention in July, but a state DFL committee later rescinded it following an investigation.
In its report, the Constitution, Bylaws, and Rules Committee (CBRC) said there were problems with the electronic voting system that could have changed the results of the endorsement vote, among other issues with the convention.
The Minneapolis DFL has now appealed that decision to another state DFL committee.
