State Sen. Omar Fateh’s mayoral campaign will pay a $500 fine for continuing to distribute campaign materials advertising him as a DFL-endorsed candidate after the party revoked its endorsement. Fateh won the mayoral endorsement at the Minneapolis DFL Convention on July 19, but the party announced on Aug. 21 it had clawed it back after a review found irregularities in the balloting process. Regardless, Fateh campaign volunteers and surrogates continued to hand out literature bearing the DFL endorsement logo until a chief political officer of the DFL told the campaign on Aug. 26 to “make all reasonable efforts to stop using its endorsement on … campaign material,” an administrative court ruling states. Only then did Fateh’s staff begin blacking out references to the DFL endorsement on campaign literature. The website took longer to update, and the last mention of a DFL endorsement — a photo of Fateh standing next to an outdated yard sign — wasn’t taken off Fateh’s website until Aug. 29.
