I picked up records for previous Elections for the MN Ward 5 Council from Minneapolis City Hall. Yes, Blong lost the endorsement but Blong's never won the DFL endorsement. Blong has never come in above 3rd at a DFL endorsing Convention, this year he came in 2nd. Although the Name "Ellison" is a big name in Minneapolis, If used correctly by opponents that will most likely be his downfall. Norm Coleman's son Jake is one of my closest political allies and he has pulled me out of the fire on multiple occasions. Coleman is a big name and he broke records on fundraising but when going up against someone who has been an extremely visible presence in the community he lost the race.Kieth is in Congress, Kim is on the school board Adding a 3rd Ellison looks like Dynasty Building, also the motto a northsider for the north side sounds Nativist and it appears that the intent is to make a black issue on everyone else issue which is going to isolate a lot of the electorate . Looking at Numbers and patterns. I predict Blong Yang wins re-election to the Ward 5 council seat by a moderately smaller margin then last time.
