Josh Bassais has announced his campaign for the District 3 Hennepin County Commissioner seat currently held by Marion Greene.
His announcement posted to Facebook:

I am proud to share that I am running for Hennepin County Commissioner for District 3.
Across our district, people are feeling the impact of rising property taxes, slow or unresponsive county services, long delays on major projects, and growing concerns about housing affordability and public safety. These challenges are real and people deserve leadership that treats them with urgency and respect.
I believe District 3 deserves a county government that shows up, listens, and delivers real results. That means using tax dollars responsibly, improving how county services work for residents, moving faster on affordable housing, strengthening public safety with a balanced approach, and bringing more transparency to how decisions are made.
This campaign is about rebuilding trust and making sure county government is focused on the basics that matter to families and neighborhoods. I am ready to put in the work and bring accountable, community focused leadership to the County Board.
I hope you will join me. Learn more about the campaign and how to get involved at joshfordistrict3.com
Together, we can build a stronger and more responsive future for District 3.
