I do not condone intimidation or harassment of any sort.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Saturday&#8217;s convention was held to endorse a candidate for the Minneapolis City Council race. Video circulating on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxbusiness.com\/category\/social-media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media<\/a> shows a disturbance happened after supporters of Chughtai took the stage to seek the delegates\u2019 backing for the seat. That sparked an uproar among Warsame&#8217;s supporters.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/minnesota-lawmakers-target-amazon-other-warehouses-productivity-quota-regulations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>MINNESOTA LAWMAKERS TARGET AMAZON, OTHER WAREHOUSES WITH PRODUCTIVITY QUOTA REGULATIONS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Some jumped on stage, shouting, banging on tables and waving signs. At least two people were injured, and the convention broke up with no endorsement.<\/p>\n<p>Warsame&#8217;s campaign manager, Abshir Omar, said Wednesday that Warsame\u2019s supporters were victims \u2014 not perpetrators. Omar said Warsame\u2019s supporters \u2014 who are primarily Black, Muslim and immigrants \u2014 have been the target of racism.<\/p>\n<p>Chughtai released a statement saying: &#8220;The Warsame campaign is asking you to believe their version of events, which are clearly not what we all saw on the videos. This convention used the same open and transparent process that the DFL has always used, and was agreed to by both campaigns.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/minnesota-senate-passes-sweeping-gun-control-laws-including-red-flag-law\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>MINNESOTA SENATE PASSES SWEEPING GUN CONTROL LAWS, INCLUDING &#8216;RED FLAG LAW&#8217;<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Chughtai&#8217;s spokesperson, Akhi Menawat, said previously that he didn\u2019t think the dispute had anything to do with ethnicity or race.<\/p>\n<p>Minnesota Democratic leaders are holding an emergency meeting Thursday to determine if rules need to change as a result of the disturbance. Ken Martin, chair of the state Democratic Party organization, has said he would use the meeting to propose a change that would &#8220;ban individuals engaged in violent assaults&#8221; from the party and &#8220;take immediate action to remove the folks involved.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Both Warsame and Chughtai are Democratic candidates in an overwhelmingly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/elections\/democrats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Democratic city<\/a> where campaigns for party backing are often heated.<\/p>\n<p>Warsame is a political newcomer who is campaigning on a law-and-order message. Chughtai is a longtime activist who managed U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar\u2019s 2018 campaign. She is the daughter of Pakistani immigrants and has endorsements from a long list of progressive and labor groups, including the Democratic Socialists of America.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/minneapolis-city-council-candidate-doesnt-condone-violence-days-chaos-democratic-convention\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/minneapolis-city-council-candidate-doesnt-condone-violence-days-chaos-democratic-convention <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Days after chaos erupted at a Democratic nominating convention for a Minneapolis City Council seat, one of the candidates said he does not condone violence.
