MINNEAPOLIS — Congresswoman Ilhan Omar came out swinging against the MN DFL after the state party decided to overturn the endorsement of progressive mayoral candidate Omar Fateh. The congresswoman called the decision "inexcusable" in a post on X.

Fateh, a democratic socialist, won the endorsement on July 19 at a Minneapolis DFL convention marked by difficulties and delays with the party’s electronic voting system.

The DFL has revoked the Minneapolis arm of the party's endorsement of state Sen. Omar Fateh in the Minneapolis mayoral race.
