Chaos erupts at Minneapolis DFL Ward 10 convention — adjourned, no endorsement in City Council race

The Ward 10 Minneapolis DFL convention adjourned with no endorsement. As Council Member Aisha Chughtai and her supporters were taking the stage for her speech, Nasri Warsame supporters advanced towards the stage, and began pushing and shoving. Chughtai was prevented from addressing the convention. The chair adjourned the meeting, saying it was no longer safe. Police were called and the Ella Baker school was cleared out. The actions of Warsame’s supporters ended the convention before any votes could be cast to endorse a candidate in the Ward 10 race for Minneapolis City Council.
