I also want to thank my fellow candidates for stepping up to run, and engaging our neighbors across our Senate District this election.

I am humbled to have the support of our community to serve for a third term and keep advocating for the Southside at the State Capitol.

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

Thank you, Minneapolis!

We won! I'm proud to be your DFL candidate for Senate District 62.

I am so thankful for every volunteer who helped Team Fateh mobilize our neighbors across Southside.

Let’s win back the DFL trifecta. Onward to November! Join us: https://t.co/u7ZUDus8yr

With over 78% of the vote out of a total of 16,384 votes cast in this race, our organizing work increased Primary Election voter turnout in our senate district by 3,856 votes – an 23.5% from the last SD62 Primary in 2022!!!

This is truly a remarkable feat.

I’m proud to be endorsed by my brother, Minnesota Attorney General @KeithEllison.

As the People’s Lawyer, Keith fights corporate greed & helps Minnesotans afford their lives and live with dignity, safety; respect.

Let’s re-elect him this November to continue serving Minnesota!

I’m proud to be endorsed by Minneapolis’ local elected leaders in every level of government - from our Board of Estimate of Taxation, to our School Board, and Hennepin Co. Board of Commissioners.

Glad to have Angela Conley, Eric Harris Bernstein, & Greta Callahan on Team Fateh!

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

I'm proud to be your @MinnesotaDFL endorsed candidate for Senate District 62!

Our campaign has also earned the support of DFL Community Caucuses: @MYDFL, @StonewallDFL, & DFL Senior Caucus.

DFLers understand that now, more than ever, we need progressive leaders who won’t fold.

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

We are so incredibly grateful for the talented organizers of these progressive groups, and the critical role they play in Minnesota politics.

I look forward to continuing to work with them both on the campaign trail, and in governance.

Let's win back the trifecta & get to work!

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

Team Fateh is proudly backed by @TwinCitiesDSA, @Team_Ilhan, @OurRevolution, & @TakeActionMN!

Movement organizations who put in the work to mobilize Minnesotans & build the bench of progressive leaders at every single level of government.

Tomorrow, let’s win big on Primary Day!

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

Team Fateh joined our neighbors next door, knocking hundreds of doors for @FrancescaHongWI in Eau Claire, Wisconsin!

Together, we make better possible. Vote for Fran tomorrow, August 11th and let's build a Wisconsin where everyone has a seat at the table: https://t.co/OaxXxAUBvo

Ilhan is the best partner one could ask for in Congress.

Her office works tirelessly and diligently to deliver quality constituent services, bring federal dollars back to MN's 5th district, holds the Trump administration accountable.

I am proud to have @IlhanMN on Team Fateh.

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

I'm grateful to have the endorsement of our Congresswoman @IlhanMN.

She understands we need leaders who won’t fold under pressure.

Team Fateh & @Team_Ilhan have been mobilizing the Southside to go vote! As Ilhan says, “Organized people beat organized money – every single time.��

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

Neighborhood parks are so important for our youth. As a Senator, I spearheaded funding for local programs like “Teen Teamworks” – expanded teen job access through the Park Board.

Minneapolis' parks are renown. Let’s keep improving them for residents & future generations to come.

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

I'm thrilled to be endorsed by the progressive majority on our Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board!

The work Commissioners Olsen, Deshpande, Frederick, Engelhart, Garcia, and Carvajal Moran do to advocate for a more equitable, sustainable; resilient parks system is invaluable.

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

Together, we fought for and won the strongest guaranteed minimum wage & worker protections for Uber/Lyft drivers in the nation.

We also restored the right to join a union for over 23,000+ U of M workers.

Minnesota workers can count on me to be a fierce ally of organized labor.

[Omar Fateh @OmarFatehMN]

Minneapolis is a Union Town – always will be.

I am humbled to be your Labor-Endorsed SD62 candidate, supported by powerhouse unions like SEIU, Education Minnesota, AFL-CIO, Teamsters, Minnesota Nurses, and IFO.

Their membership keeps our state running, and I've got their backs.
