All five Rapid City Council wards to have contested races in June election
RAPID CITY, S.D. (KOTA) - All five Rapid City Council wards will have contested races in the June 2 municipal election.
The Rapid City Finance Office validated petitions for 11 candidates seeking three-year seats. All candidates will appear on the ballot.
It is the first time since 2002 that every ward has a contested race in the same cycle, and only the third time since 1995.
Ward Four has three candidates running. A runoff, if needed, will be held on June 23.
