Sherman County voters will decide several contested local races, along with state and federal contests and statewide ballot measures, when they go to the polls in just under three weeks. The statewide general election will take place on November 3rd. Early voting is already underway.
Contest for mayor of Loup City and several school boards are on the county ballot. Voters will also decide who serves in the Nebraska unicameral’s District 41 seat, and on races for congress, the senate, and the governor’s office.
Locally, both Mark Nabity and Doug Anderson are running to be the municipality’s next mayor. Currently, Andrew Iske is the interim mayor. Former mayor Laura Hart stepped away in September due to changes in her work situation. Scott Mroczek is running uncontested to represent District 1 on the county board; Darnell Janulewicz likewise for District 2. Other county offices on the ballot include assessor, attorney, clerk, sheriff and treasurer. All five of those positions are also uncontested. No candidate filed for county surveyor.
