Kt Jacobs thinks you’ll vote for a liar on November 5, 2024.
Columbia Heights City Council Member Kt Jacobs interfered with the 2022 election when she used a 2 hour phone call to harass a candidate and question his racial identity. After she was identified by caller ID, she privately claimed responsibility and tearfully apologized to the City Council. However, she then fabricated a preposterous story, saying that she didn’t make the phone call herself. This triggered an outside investigation which found that Kt Jacobs did make the harassing call. She has since been unanimously censured and stripped of her appointments by her fellow Council Members, both Republicans and Democrats. She can no longer legitimately represent the citizens of Columbia Heights. Her lies and racist behavior clearly show that she is unfit for office. She has been asked to resign multiple times by two City Councils and residents alike.

Votes against non-white commission candidates, calling them “unqualified”.

Makes racist comments to invalidate or intimidate people of color, including candidates for office.
She sued her own city for trying to recall her.
Outraged Columbia Heights voters formed a committee to recall Kt Jacobs from office. They drafted a petition that met the city’s charter rules but unknowingly fell just short of Minnesota’s state law. When the petition was accepted by the City Council, Kt Jacobs sued her own city. Her case reached the Supreme Court which halted the recall election. But in it’s official opinion, the Supreme Court humiliated Jacobs saying “Making racially insensitive comments and lying is certainly shameful behavior”. Although they reluctantly ruled in Jacobs’ favor, the Supreme Court concluded their opinion with “We acknowledge that Jacobs’ conduct was inappropriate and caused harm, and nothing in our opinion should be read as condoning such behavior by an elected municipal official.” Read the full Supreme Court Opinion
