Minnesota’s branch of the Democratic Party endorsed far-left Minnesota State Sen. Omar Fateh’s campaign for mayor of Minneapolis on Saturday.
Fateh announced the endorsement from the Democratic Farmer-Labor (DFL) party on social media. He secured the endorsement over incumbent mayor Jacob Frey, also a Democrat.

Fateh has received many comparisons to New York City’s Zohran Mamdani. Like Mamdani, Fateh is a Muslim Democratic socialist and, at 35, a fellow member of Generation Y.
Fateh, a son of Somali immigrants, became the first Somali-American elected to the Minnesota Senate in 2020. He pledges that, if elected mayor, he would raise the city’s minimum wage, increase the supply of affordable housing, and combat what he calls “police violence.”
