OSWEGO, IL — The general election is barely behind Oswego residents, and preparations have already begun for the next election, when residents will vote for a new mayor and to fill three expiring trustee seats.
The village clerk will begin accepting candidate petitions for the consolidated election on April 6, 2027, beginning at 8 a.m. Nov. 16 at Oswego Village Hall, 100 Parkers Mill.
The filing period will run through 4:30 p.m. Nov. 23.
The consolidated election marks the end of Ryan Kauffman's first term as Oswego village president. He was first elected into office in April 2023, when he overtook then-Village President Troy Parlier by about 55 percent of the vote.
Voters will also take to the polls to select who will hold the next four-year term for the trustee seats currently held by Jennifer Hughes, Karin McCarthy-Lange and Andrew Torres.
