Nichole Klonowski has won her bid for reelection to the Brooklyn Park City Council Central District seat, according to unofficial results from the Minnesota Secretary of State.
Klonowski received 5,765 votes, or 59.13%, while challenger Ashyante Shantell Gill received 3,921 votes, or 40.22%.
Safe neighborhoods, investment in youth, government transparency, environmental stewardship and stronger mental health support are among Klonowski’s stated priorities. She is employed as a director of strategy for Pope Design Group.
As an incumbent, Klonowski highlighted various achievements while on the campaign trail — such as securing state funding for the Community Activity Center expansion and support for the Biotech Innovation District.
Gill describes herself as a community health advocate and volunteer. She currently serves on Brooklyn Park’s Community Long-Range Improvement Commission.
Once the results are certified, Klonowski will serve a four-year term beginning in January 2027.
