Minneapolis Mayor Frey wins another term
Fox News
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has been elected to a second term after a hotly contested race that was too tight to call on election night.
Seventeen candidates ran in the race, including many who took issue with the way Frey has handled changes to the police department since one of its officers killed George Floyd last year. Frey, a Democrat, risked his political future and drew the ire of the city’s most liberal voices by opposing a ballot question asking voters to eliminate the police department.
The measure, which asked voters if they favored amending the city's charter to replace the Minneapolis Police Department with a Department of Public Safety, failed on Tuesday night. The initiative would have removed language from the charter related to the agency, including minimum funding requirements, and would have divided control of public safety between the mayor and city council.
