hennepin county
We all deserve safe communities. We all deserve justice. We all deserve better than the last four years.
We can do better. And together, we will.
U.S. Marine. Federal Prosecutor. Democrat.
Anders Folk grew up in Hopkins, graduated from the University of Minnesota, and served in the Marine Corps before rising from federal prosecutor to Acting U.S. Attorney for Minnesota. Learn more about Anders below.
I was born and raised in Hopkins. Angela and I are raising our four kids in Minneapolis. This is our home.
I love it here and want Hennepin County to thrive now and in the future.
I spent my career as a federal prosecutor taking on violent criminals, fraudsters, and terrorists. I signed the federal indictment of Derick Chauvin for violating George Floyd’s civil rights. I know what a well-run prosecutor's office can do for a community, and I know Hennepin County isn't getting it.
We can build a country where safety is a right for everyone. Where no one is above the law, regardless of who they are or who they know. Where the County Attorney’s Office is guided by public safety, the public good, and the impartial pursuit of justice, not rhetoric or ideology.
That's a new day in Hennepin County. Together, we'll build it.
safety for all
I’m running for Hennepin County Attorney to make Hennepin County safe for everyone.
Born to serve. REady to Lead.
