4.11 22:51 NAPKIN MATCH (136 of 137 precincts reporting) Frey #1 60,735 Fateh #1 46,131 (-14,604) All Other #1 38,585 If NO ballots were exhausted, Fateh needs a 38 pt win (69%-31%) in Round 2 to pass Frey BUT ballots will be exhausted + Frey won't get 31% in R2 Still, Fateh needs 14,605+++ R2 votes to win
4.11 22:25 There you go. EHB and Steve Brandt are your winners! [contains quote post or other embedded content]
4.11 22:16 Let me correct my own text, Jason Garcia has 9,502 votes. More napkin math: Colby would need to be ranked #2 on over 60% of the Gebo/write-in ballots WITHOUT Garcia getting a SINGLE additional vote to even make up that current 1,063 vote deficit.

4.11 22:11 Or DO we go to ranked choice? Both of the top two have more than 33⅓% so how does RCV work here? [contains quote post or other embedded content]
4.11 22:02 Looking like MN Senate special elections will be split with GOP leading in SD29 (30 of 37 precincts in) and DFL leading in SD47 (17 of 19 precincts in). I think this leaves the Senate with same one vote DFL majority 34-33, somebody check my math

One hour after polls close, 0 precincts reporting on the Sec'y of State website results for the Minneapolis municipal election
4.11 20:45 ANDERSON COOPER: Let's hear from Scott Jennings— CRZ: Ah, no, no. <click>
4.11 20:28 Nothing yet. See you in 10 minutes
4.11 20:03 Welp, here we go https://electionresults.sos.mn.gov/results/Index?ErsElectionId=187&scenario=LocalMunicipality&FipsCode=43000&show=Go
4.11 18:25 Just got a text AND a door knock from Robin volunteers. Guys, I've already voted, it's fine, y'all can leave me in peace finally.
4.11 17:53 Ooh, sorry, I JUST ranked three way better people!
4.11 17:39 
Vote 960 cast at Ward 2, Precinct 5! For the first time in a long time I had to stand 6th in line before I could check in; not sure if I just picked a time everybody else was here or if we're actually seeing way more votes for a #MPLSVotes city election than usual. Hope everybody wrote in CRZ!
3.11 23:46 Oh hello, undefeated @ucriverside.bsky.social Highlanders (I must confess, I had no idea La Sierra even HAD an NAIA hoops team)
3.11 23:04 
Wonder where Minneapolis will be at in 24 hours
2.11 23:47 
Quick reminder: ranking me for Minneapolis mayor is still better than ranking Frai
2.11 23:43 
Lemme see if I can guess who they are. Brock Lesnar for sure. I have to say I think I saw a CM Punk post some time this weekend so that one's cheating. Is Logan Paul one of them? And.......probably Seth Rollins because singalongs How'd I do? Have I lost all the WrestleSky cred I never had? [contains quote post or other embedded content]
31.10 23:31 No photos from Hotbed tonight but thanks to All The Pretty Horses for waiting until I showed up and can't wait for The Stonedest at, like, 5:30am

Aw geez I'm sure gonna miss all those Minnesota Rusco ads that have been on the local news every day "♫ since 1955 ♫"

Got another "Minneapolis Forward" shit mailer for Madore which I didn't even bother to photograph for you (because it's shit) Boy I hope Robin wins by, like, 40 points
28.10 20:05 I'd affiliate with this party SO MUCH FASTER than the other two parties I've claimed affiliation with in 2025 [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Ward 2 Mail update: got a Minneapolis Forward mailer today. What the SHIT is this SHIT (sorry in advance for no alt text on these)
23.10 22:41 Anybody remember when ICE was FOOD
23.10 21:23 Just tuned into the Vikings game. Probably from me missing the game up to this point but was the thinking about getting this field goal something like the Vikes wanted to go from three scores down to...still needing three scores to win?

KFAI would never do this. Shame on "The Peoples Station" (I know, they have no shame, remember that time they proudly accepted donations from Julius De Roma, that sure was weird) [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Ooh, I get to play today! Here's All of Mpls threatening Ward 2 voters with a good time and an unsourced "quote"

Today's light reading from the City of Minneapolis Legislative Information Management System: "History of Mayoral Control over Police Department" https://lims.minneapolismn.gov/Download/FileV2/20060/Mayoral-Authority-over-Police-V-2.pdf
21.10 15:45 Thanks to @guruzim.bsky.social I am now on Tidal via his family plan. Looks like options to friend folks are way less than on Spotify...anybody got anything I should follow? [Already found a software package to clone the @weekend.crz.mn 2025 playlist (matched 607 of 635 + I found some stragglers)]

In Minneapolis, the mayor controls the MPD. It's been that way since, like, the nineteenth century. Not anybody on the council. The mayor. The mayor controls the MPD. How can anyone watch this video and think they should vote to give our city four more years of THIS mayor's "control" of MPD? [contains quote post or other embedded content]
18.10 15:18 In case you, @hansen9j.bsky.social and @dubldowndrew.bsky.social missed it https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/a-lot-of-twists-and-turns-halifax-pilot-draws-blue-jays-logo-in-the-sky
