Having municipal elections decided by clan feuds from Somalia is pure fucking madness. Send them all back. They don't belong here and to hell with whoever decided to bring them in the first place. https://t.co/IqnPxPc0ma

A significant number of Somalians in Minneapolis didn't vote for ethnic Somali Mayoral candidate Omar Fateh due to Fateh being part of the Daarood clan rather than the Hawiye. These deep seeded clan wars allowed Mayor Jacob Frey to rally key community leaders from the Hawiye clan to hold off a challenge from Fateh.
Representative Ilhan Omar, who endorsed Fateh and is part of the Daarood clan, is reportedly the next target of Hawiye community leaders as they are emboldened by their proxy victory over the Daarood in the Mayoral election, she will possibly face a primary challenge on tribal grounds.
Omar Fateh unironically lost in Minnesota because a significant part of the Somali community voted against him based on clan affiliation https://t.co/Pyzg1RyWZM pic.twitter.com/ugM9bUUfWS
