When Mundelein Mayor Steve Lentz won his second term in 2017, he defeated two rivals, finishing with a mere five-vote margin over the second-place finisher.
In next spring s local election, he ll have three experienced challengers village trustees Dawn Abernathy and Robin Meier, and Mundelein High School District 120 board member Thomas Ouimet.
Voter turnout is essential in a four-way race, Meier said.
Mundelein s mayor s office, the clerk s office and three trustee seats will be on the ballot. All the races are contested.
Lentz was first elected mayor in 2013 after four years as a trustee. He won a three-way race in 2013, defeating Meier and Mundelein Park and Recreation District board member Wally Frasier.
