Michael Fenger
Conservatives
In 1888,[b] the Conservatives won the mayor's position in the municipality for the first time. Since then, the Conservatives had held it. In 2017 they won their 33rd consecutive term, and Hans Toft his 7th term. However, he would not stand in this election.[2]
Despite a new candidate from the Conservatives, they would still win a comfortable absolute majority. They lost 1 seat, but still won 12 of the 19 seats (63.2%). It would be the municipality where they won the highest % of votes, and also the third highest vote share for a party in the 2017 Danish local elections. With 12 seats, Michael Fenger, the new Conservative candidate, was set to become the mayor.[3][4][5]
