Minneapolis's mayor was up for election as well as all the seats on the City Council, the two elected seats on the Board of Estimate and Taxation, and all the seats on the Park and Recreation Board. Voters were able to rank up to three candidates for each office in order of preference. City offices are formally nonpartisan, though the offices of mayor and city council allow candidates to list a party or preference.
The candidate filing period was from July 29 to August 12, 2025. Early in-person and mail voting began on September 19, 2025.
