Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz says he will not seek reelection to a third term as criticism over a fraud scandal intensifies in his state. "As I reflected on this moment with my family and my team over the holidays, I came to the conclusion that I can’t give a political campaign my all,” Walz says.

If Mamdani wins the election, becoming the city’s first Muslim mayor and its youngest in a century, Duwaji too would be positioned to make and shape history. She would be the first member of Gen Z to serve as New York City’s first lady. With @aritjohncnn cnn.com/2025/11/02/pol…

Waiting for new DNC chair @kenmartin73 to gaggle with reporters. Final vote was 246.5 Martin, 134 Wikler and 44 O’Malley. In the end, only one candidate’s support matched what they were claiming ahead the vote.
