The city of Minnetonka will hold municipal elections this fall.
City positions that will be on the November 5 general election ballot include mayor and the two at-large council seats. Filings for these offices opened Tuesday, May 21, and closed at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 4.
Names of those who have filed are posted below.
Mayor
• Terry Schneider
• Grace Sheely
Council Member At Large Seat A
- Dick Allendorf
- Danny R. Martin (filed but then later withdrew)
- Angela Griffin
- Patty Acomb
- Dan Martin
- Brian Grogan
- Rick Ranta
If only one or two candidates filed for the seats, then there won’t be a primary—all candidates will go directly on the general election ballot, set for Nov. 5.
Since three or more candidates filed for the Council Member At Large Seat B, there will be a primary election this fall. This year’s city primary election will be held on Aug. 13. Check the city's Elections page for the latest status of a primary election.
Absentee voting
