a college student stands next to a flag at a polling place — Danny Gonzalez, a freshman at the University of Minnesota, stands for a portrait after voting at Weisman Art Museum on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 4, 2025, in Minneapolis, Minn. “I believe that he [Frey] got unlucky in his first term with COVID issues. When I look at it realistically, policy like raising minimum wage by 2026 isn’t going to work,” said Gonzalez, who ranked Mayor Jacob Frey first and Omar Fateh second. “If Fateh shows more developed plans in the future, I think I’d vote for him,” he said. “I’m looking forward to seeing what Zohran Mamdani can do with Democratic Socialist policy before voting for it at home.” Credit: Ellen Schmidt/MinnPost/CatchLight Local/Report for America

two women stand for a portrait on a sunny fall day — Elnora Jones, left, and her daughter Valorie Jones stand for a portrait outside the polling place at North High School on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 4, 2025, in Minneapolis, Minn. The duo went to two polling places before being able to vote at the high school. “I wasn’t going to vote for Frey, but I had to step back and think,” said Valorie, who ended up ranking the current mayor first. She said she values the new housing in North Minneapolis and thinks the changes within the police department are positive, and decided to give Frey a chance to “do more than he’s done.” Credit: Ellen Schmidt/MinnPost/CatchLight Local/Report for America
