Minneapolis city council race

The results have broken up the progressive block on the council, which had a veto-proof majority coming into the election. Incumbent Katie Cashman has been voted out in Ward 7, with Elizabeth Shaffer taking her place on the council. 

Currently, there are three new council members, but Ward 5 is too close to call at this time and is going to a second ballot. You can find live results from the ranked choice voting election below.
