The filing window for the November 2nd election closed Thursday evening with incumbents and newcomers on the ballot around Washington County.  

Terms for Kalona City Council members Hank Beisheim, Joe Schmidt and Craig Spitzer will expire at the end of this year and all three plan to run for re-election. Roy Carney will be the final resident running for a seat on the council. Riverside City Council Member Kevin Mills was appointed to the council earlier this year to fill a vacancy left by Jeanine Redlinger. Mills is leaving his two-year term seat to run for one of the four-year terms available. Citizens Sue Richmond, Larry Simon and Kevin Kiene will be on the ballot for the two-year seat.
