Voter #57 at 8:20am in my precinct! Happy election day, y'all! 🗳️☑️ #MinnesotaPrimary
If I'm out of bed before 7am, it's for a special reason! And today it was to join the Peggy Flanagan cheer squad in SLP as she started her election day of campaigning! Let's go, Peggy!
Let's go, @lynettedumalag.bsky.social! 💜🩵🌞 #TeamLynette
I support a candidate who fills a gap in representation, who comes w/ loads of experience, who SHOWS UP & not just when she needs votes (she ACTUALLY cares - who knew?), & will bring a much needed change to how we are represented in SD46. I am proudly #TEAMLYNETTE 💜🩵 @lynettedumalag.bsky.social
Today marks America's 250th birthday, a milestone that truly deserves a grand celebration. While it is hard not to look at the state of the country & feel embarrassed by how far we've drifted, we can still love our country & its enduring spirit. Enjoy whatever you do to celebrate! 🎆
Look, she's up against some shady shit and she needs a boost, y'all! Toss Lynette Dumalag for Minnesota Senate District 46 a donation today!! 💜🩵 secure.actblue.com/donate/lynet...
Great night for a fundraiser for our next MN State Senator, @lynettedumalag.bsky.social! It speaks so highly of Lynette that she is supported by the majority of Hopkins & SLP local electeds & both of our State Reps! I'm so honored to be able to vote for this wonderful human! 💜🩵🌞
To say Hopkins Pride was fun is a massive understatement! It was amazing! Thank you to @hopkinspride.bsky.social & everyone who had a part in it; planners, volunteers, performers, vendors, City staff, & attendees! It was a colorful, beautiful, joyous day! Can't wait till next year! ❤️🏳️🌈 #ThinkHopkins
Happy Hopkins Pride weekend! Go get yourself a Pride Punch at @creamandamber! 😍🏳️🌈 #ThinkHopkins #HopkinsPride
It was a pleasure to introduce Lt. Governor / candidate for U.S. Senate @peggyflanagan.bsky.social at her fundraiser last week! Peggy is the most qualified person in this race & she is exactly who we need representing MN. Can’t wait to join #TeamPeggy this weekend at the State DFL Convention!
Senate district convention stops #3 & #4 were SD39 and SD51, where both of my friends earned their DFL nominations! Congrats to future House Rep Amáda Márquez Simula and future Senator Simon Trautmann Cordova! #LatinosLead #Election2026
Here at my fourth Senate District convention to boost Simon Trautmann Cordova for MN Senate! Let's go, SD51! #dfl
I recently joined the Vail Communities advisory council. Today we welcomed Hennepin Co Commissioner Edelson to the clubhouse! So great to share w/ her, the amazing opportunities that Vail provides. Thank you Heather for visiting, the thoughtful questions, & supporting this important org in Hopkins!
Currently attending my third DFL SD convention of the year and I'm realizing that I really need to find another "me" who just really loves supporting amazing candidates and wants to travel around and do that with me 🤘🏽 Applications open now 😝
Earlier this week, I was a guest speaker for #MCLA at Latino Youth Day at the Capitol. I hope to bring my own leadership to their Board in the future, but for now, I’ll happily take an opportunity to share how to lead w/ heart & purpose, & claim spaces where decisions are made. 🇨🇱 #LatinoLeadership
3/11 @leagueofmncities.bsky.social Day on the Hill! Heard from @governorwalz.mn.gov, listened to League legislative updates, saw CM friends from many cities, attended Senate session during floor vote (SF3596, passed 35-32), & visited w/ Rep. @clyouakim.bsky.social! cc @kimberlycaresmn.bsky.social
Today is #InternationalWomensDay, & it must be said: in the recent ICE occupation, it is women & non-binary people leading the resistance. We are organizing, strategizing, & protecting our neighbors. We are transforming community care into a masterclass in leadership. We are showing up. ✊🏽✨ #IWD2026
West metro Council Members joined host Kristy Janigo (Maple Grove) last night for a great evening of community collaboration! When we support each other across city borders, our entire region grows stronger. 📸 CMs Wilburn (Minnetonka), Budd (SLP), Janigo, Garrido (Hopkins), Greenberg (Robbinsdale).
Recognizing MLK Day is an important act of resistance. It celebrates the power of peaceful protest against hate & fascism. Democracy only survives when we protect the rights of all & our spirit cannot be conquered by fear or violence. Remember what MLK fought for today, & every day. #MLKday
Council members don't always agree and that was certainly the case today! 🤣 But can't think of a better person to tailgate with for my first game at US Bank stadium, Packers vs Vikings! Congrats to the Vikes on their win, and fingers crossed for my guys in green and gold in the playoffs! #GoPackGo
🎶 Reelected and it feels so good! 🎵 #Garrido4Hopkins
One week to go! Make a plan to vote! For more information: hopkinsmn.com/352/Voting-E... #Garrido4Hopkins
Just out here getting ready to ride in 2027! Great event this morning at the Blake Road Station in #Hopkins, introducing the test trains on @metrotransitmn.bsky.social Green Line LRT! 🚈 #ThinkHopkins #GreenLineLRT
Indigenous Peoples' Day is a crucial observance that honors the history, culture, & resilience of Native American communities. Today we reflect on the contributions of indigenous peoples & acknowledge injustices they have faced, promoting an inclusive understanding of history. #IndigenousPeoplesDay
