Because Frey didn't get more than 50% of the first round votes, no winner was declared yet and won't be until tomorrow at the earliest.
I’ve seen enough (vibes). I’m ready to call the Minneapolis mayoral race.

I just cast my vote – it was a run but very surreal experience to vote for myself for the first time.

If you haven’t voted yet, please get out there before polls close today at 8 pm. Today we get to choose the Minneapolis we deserve.

Tim Robinson voice: “I could smell the onions and mustard”
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.

The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.

"I could smell the onions and mustard."
As always a huge thank you to @naomikritzer.bsky.social for all the work on this!

TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

Let’s be clear, most EBT users are white. The reason he’s specifically lying about “weaves” and we’ve seen so many AI fakes of Black women ranting about food stamps is they need to make BW the face EBT because they know many Americans don’t care if Black people suffer, and some actually wish for it.
ROB SCHMITT: People are using SNAP benefits to get their nails done, to get their weaves and their hair. This is a really ugly program.

SEN. RON JOHNSON: That program needs to be dramatically reformed.

Holy crow Jason! What an ordeal. Very glad you are on the road to recovery ❤️
The Trick or Treaters are once again very good this year. My wife got Pixy Stix and apparently this generation of children has no idea what they are! I keep getting to explain them to wide eyes. It’s wonderful 😃

A scoop that I’m not happy to report:

CBS News has gutted its climate change reporting team, one of the best in the business, and one of the only ones on cable news that consistently called out fossil fuels as the main source of climate pollution.
