Incumbent Mayor Jacob Frey and main challenger Sen. Omar Fateh (DFL-Minneapolis) hosted election night parties Tuesday evening ahead of the 2025 mayoral election results.

Frey sought a third four-year term this year, and during his tenure has increased pay to the Minneapolis Police Department and focused on downtown revitalization efforts such as improving Nicollet Mall and the Warehouse District.

Fateh’s campaign has focused on affordability efforts — such as rent stabilization and wage increases.He has since grown to be a well-known Democratic Socialist candidate.

Despite 15 mayoral candidates running, Frey and Fateh emerged as the main contenders. Kai Shelley, one of Fateh’s campaign managers, said he was not available for an interview during his election night party. Frey was also not present at his party before results were announced.
