Mayoral candidate Jeffrey Wagner has a simple message for the people of Minneapolis: “Wake the fuck up.”
In the most bizarre campaign ad you’ll see all season, Wagner, reportedly a member of the Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party, emerges from a lake in his boxers, coffee in hand, in response to an on-screen request for a mayor that really “represents the people of Minneapolis.”
Wagner says he’s cool making $100K a year, and he makes a few campaign promises. “”I will not take money from the developers. I will not take money from the political angle. I will not even go to the strip clubs anymore.”
No strip clubs? That’s serious.
According to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, Wagner is one of more than 30 candidates running for mayor. At least on YouTube, where he has nearly 300,000 views, his approval ratings are through the roof.
