“We expect candidates and their campaign teams to work hard to curb such behavior when it comes from their supporters, staffers, or volunteers,” Martin said. “Warsame and his team took the opposite approach ... by escalating the situation and encouraging conflict.” Warsame has campaigned on a law-and-order message, saying on his website that he’s “committed to reducing crime and addressing issues such as car theft, organized crime, human trafficking, and the opioid crisis,” while also “dedicated to working collaboratively with law enforcement to reform policing practices and address issues of racial bias and discrimination within the department.”
