Councilman Jason Goltz, 2nd Ward, is running for mayor. Goltz will face incumbent Mayor Steve Dale for a four-year term. Wahpeton’s election is scheduled for June 14, 2022.

Goltz was first elected for a four-year term to the Wahpeton City Council in 2020. Since then, he has served on the council’s finance committee and worked with fellow council members.

The 1st Ward and mayoral races are two of several on Wahpeton’s city election ballot, Daily News previously reported. Voters will also elect candidates for 3rd Ward council member (currently held by Tiana Bohn), council members at large, two total (currently held by Kelly McNary and Lane Wateland) and Wahpeton Park Board commissioners at large, three total (currently held by Joe Schreiner, Deb Tobias and Brian Watson). All candidates would be running for a four-year term in office. Incumbent 1st Ward Councilwoman Abby Carlson, a member of the council’s public works committee, is not running for re-election.
