It’s extreme to do nothing while lives are at stake. Vote by November 3rd.
We can’t allow for another Annunciation to happen and be left wondering, could we have done something to prevent this? Yes, and it starts with voting. Minnesotans want and deserve change & we’re fighting to keep us all safe. It’s extreme to do nothing while lives are at stake. Vote by Nov 3.

Campaigns are a hard slog but also bring a tremendous amount of joy, love, and community. Vote early at Shakopee City Hall. They are open every day between now and Nov 3. 📸: Bridget Bennett / @minnpost.com

Did you know the state has workforce development funds that can sponsor training programs? One we passed last session that helped fund three Scott County graduates! buff.ly/3g6L4rf

With over 100,000 doors knocked during the first week of GOTV, DFLers are reaching more Minnesota voters than ever before. Today, you turned out in Brooklyn Park, Burnsville, Lino Lakes, Minneapolis, Moorhead, Shakopee, Stillwater, Winona and so many more spots. Sign up for a shift at dfl.org/gotv!
1 person is the reason my gun violence prevention bill didn’t pass last session - Lisa Demuth. Minnesotans demanded we pass it, and instead she & the GOP let the bill sit in a drawer. I’m looking forward to passing it next session, and having it signed by future Gov. Klobuchar. buff.ly/su7j35r
Pancakes and Door Knock kickoff at 1030 in Shako if you want to join. Shifts all through Election Day -> www.mobilize.us/dflcc/event/... Also VOTE EARLY. Polls are open today at Shakopee City Hall 9 am to 3 pm -> BradTabke.com/VOTE
Time to log off and touch doors @bradtabke.bsky.social
Gonna agree with my friend Matt here, on holding ICE accountable for Operation Metro Surge - “If your politician wasn’t out there trying to help people and protect people, then where are they gonna draw the line?” buff.ly/ApHarAM

Welcome to the team! 🚌 More than 80 new bus operators recently completed training, bringing 300+ new operators to Metro Transit this year. We’re still hiring full- and part-time operators! Know someone who’d be a great fit? https://www.metrotransit.org/drive
We have just a few remaining events for this election cycle! Sign up at buff.ly/k2GQUpd- even if these times don’t work for you, we have other options for you to help us win.
Are you being overwhelmed by campaign phone calls and door knocks? One way to reduce these is to vote early! Another: download, print, fill out, and post our Shakopee Voter Guide on your door. Click here: buff.ly/7tD3zrC

TAB is a fascinating place. Also glad to share what it’s like to serve. We need curious people who want to make recommendations on Met Council policies and also how to allocate transportation grants for active transportation, transit, and roads!
If you have any interest in the wonkiest possible, most politically fascinating form of regional transportation advocacy, please let me know. We need some folks to step up and join the Met Council TAB. DM me if you have interest or questions! metrocouncil.org/Council-Meet...

A really interesting study out of the nonpartisan Council on Criminal Justice found the types of public safety strategies we’ve implemented here in MN (and that I’ve supported in the past) have contributed to the reduction in crime we’ve seen recently. (🧵 1/2)
More so than things like increased ICE action or pretrial detentions. Community violence intervention programs and increased local government capacity to provide social services are what works. buff.ly/sgCi26N
Be like David. 💙 Sign up for your Shakopee GOTV shift -> www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...
Doorknocking in Moose Lake tomorrow. My tour of Minnesota (Winona, Maple Grove, Minneapolis Ward 6, Beautiful NE Mpls, and next Saturday, Shakopee) continues. Join me! DM if you’d like to join up in these final weeks!

It was great to spend some time in Minneapolis today for the No Kings: Vote Early event! This was an event aimed at encouraging participation from all eligible voters. Great to visit with so many Minnesotans excited to exercise their voting power. Make a plan to vote! ZackforMN.com
It takes a special kind of cognitive dissonance to warn of the trillion dollar impact on our economy from the shortage of skilled workers, while defending massive cuts to education budgets. Investing in public schools is the correct answer here! buff.ly/hXmhd53

2 MILLION doors knocked! And our team knocked at least 40,000 of them. Let’s keep up this momentum heading into the last few weeks of the election. Sign up to volunteer at buff.ly/agOofib

ICE's Operation Metro Surge cost Minnesota 32,000 jobs, a new study found.
A week later and still thinking about Digger. This is about where I landed, too. Good morning, btw. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/14/o...
