Omar Fateh, 35, a Minnesota state Senator, won the endorsement of the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party for Minneapolis mayor over Jacob Frey, who has been in office since 2018.

Omar Fateh, a rising progressive, has won the Minneapolis Democratic Party's nomination for the city's upcoming mayoral election.

Omar Fateh was endorsed by a vote of hands Saturday after Mayor Jacob Frey reportedly instructed his delegates to leave the endorsing convention.

Kirk made the comments on social media earlier this week, writing in part “the attempted Islamic takeover of America is made possible thanks to mass migration.”

Somali American Sen. Omar Fateh's Minneapolis mayoral bid mirrors Zohran Mamdani's NYC victory, as both millennial Muslims face Republican scrutiny over progressive policies.

Six candidates running for Minneapolis mayor, including Jacob Frey, share their views on immigration, homelessness and policing.

Both Omar Fateh, who is Muslim, and Mayor Jacob Frey, who’s Jewish, condemned Kirk’s attacks on Muslim candidates.
