Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has led the city through two of the most difficult events in its history: the 2020 murder of George Floyd and the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the immediate aftermath of both of those events, Frey won his first reelection bid in 2021 with 56% in the second round of the ranked-choice election.
