The field for the Ward 4 council seat narrowed on April 30, 2025 when Cristin Incitti dropped out of the race. She has urged her supporters to vote for Molly Coleman. Also running are Cole Hanson and Chauntyll Allen.

Her statement:

Over the past months, I have been so deeply moved by the conversations, support, and energy that you all have shared with me. Running for Saint Paul City Council in Ward 4 has been one of the most inspiring experiences of my life. Thank you for your financial contributions and your time and energy to this campaign.

Through our Coffee Connects, community events, and conversations, we have dreamed together about a thriving, vibrant, and affordable Saint Paul. I am especially grateful to all of you who believed in my leadership and shared your hopes for our community so openly.

Most importantly, you shared with me what was important to you in the next City Council member for Ward 4. Someone who would lead, work towards solutions, and give voice to every community in Ward 4, giving it the attention it deserves and being in community.

After much reflection, I have made the decision to conclude my campaign for City Council. This was not an easy choice, but it is one I make with clarity and hope for the future of Ward 4.

I am proud to endorse Molly Coleman for Saint Paul City Council. I believe she has the leadership acumen, time, heart, and commitment needed to serve Ward 4 with the care and presence it deserves. Molly knows this city deeply, and has built her career around coalition-building and genuine community connection. She will carry that work forward in the City Council.

This moment is not an ending — it’s a transition into continuing the work we have started, together. I remain committed to being an advocate, a neighbor, and a partner in building the strong, connected Saint Paul we all believe in.

I hope you will join me in supporting Molly Coleman and staying engaged in the important conversations ahead. Your voice and your vision are vital to shaping our future.
