Expand that to "Death to CVS" and I'm also in.
I'd come over and debate you, but I'm currently stuck in my unplowed alley because not enough people paid our block captain to get someone to plow it.
It is genuinely weird to have our results known on this side of the river before Minneapolis has determined theirs.
Y'all also need to figure out RCTab. Over here in Saint Paul we've already figured out who our next mayor is. 😉
I am legitimately surprised that more Dullinger votes went to Her than Carter.

I'm not terribly surprised. I was considering Her for a while (Saint Paul has a lot of issues still, and maybe a shakeup would help) and only went back to Carter after seeing her non-committal answers to most of those problems.
Merging the library system with Ramsey County is a better solution than what she casually said (merging with the school system.)
On the plus side, Saint Paul knows who our next mayor is even with reallocation. Thank you Ramsey County Elections!
It didn’t help that there were no Saint Paul DFL endorsements or conventions this year, which would’ve put more energy behind Carter.
There’s a lot of resentment on how Saint Paul has fared the past few years. Even if it’s out of the mayor’s control, it wasn’t a great atmosphere to be an incumbent, and Her was able to seize on that.
Hoping she communicates her concrete plan to move Saint Paul forward soon. Don’t want to spend three years rehashing Summit Avenue.

I’m really hoping most of them simply didn’t rank Her.
Should be done in about an hour.

Found it:

“If no candidate receives a majority:
The threshold and a notice of reallocation will be posted online.
RCTab will perform the reallocation, and unofficial results will be published on Ramsey County’s website within about one hour.”

I think so - I read it takes about an hour but not sure on that.

If he does pull this out, there's a book to be written about how he and his cronies transformed one of the most democratically engaged cities in America into a bitter, cynical place where a widely despised mayor can somehow magically win three terms.
Minneapolis mayoral results will continue to be tabulated tomorrow. Mayor Jacob Frey says "it looks damn good for us." He says "Minneapolis is on the rise."
I am going to be so damn snobbish if the new system in Saint Paul gets us ranked choice answers tonight while Minneapolis has to wait until tomorrow.
Fine the vacant CVS at University and Snelling out of existence!
Liking these results so far for the administrative citation question and school funding in Saint Paul!
Question is how many ranked through to Fateh.

Also nervous about the Saint Paul mayoral race.
Come ON Minneapolis!
