Described in the Minneapolis StarTribune as, “a hard-nosed budget wonk driven by her concern for the less fortunate,” Besty Hodges ’91, won majority votes in nearly every precinct in the city to become Minneapolis’ mayor-elect on Tuesday.
From the StarTribune:
“She’s a fan of NASCAR who wears Wonder Woman T-shirts beneath blazers, a progressive activist with a penchant for wading into messy political issues at City Hall, and a DFLer whose bid for mayor was opposed by the establishment of her party.”
Hodges majored in both psychology and sociology at Bryn Mawr.
