Middleton mayor’s race: The first candidate
Emily Kuhn (pictured) is running for Middleton mayor. A member of the Common Council who has represented District 4 (the area around Allen Boulevard and Lakeview Park) on the Council since 2018, she announced that she filed the necessary paperwork with the Middleton City clerk on Monday, November 14.
Current mayor Gurdip Brar's second term in office is up next April, and he has not announced his intentions one way or another. During his first successful campaign for mayor in 2017 (in 2009 he was defeated by Kurt Sonnentag) he had declared that he would be a one-term mayor, but he has been doing a lot of informal campaigning this past summer and fall, and persistent rumors have it that he will run for a third term.
