CITY OF SHEBOYGAN MAYOR
Upcoming Election
February 16, 2021
Primary Election

Ryan Sorenson
I grew up here, graduated from South High School, and after graduating from UW-Milwaukee, returned home to give back to the community that has given me so much. I have the energy, passion, and experience to help Sheboygan reach its full potential. But to do that, we cannot be satisfied with the status quo. I know how to bring people together to get things done. We can improve our roads, develop affordable housing, maintain our excellent police and fire departments, and provide real support to small businesses while holding the line on taxes.

Mike Vandersteen
I love Sheboygan. I enjoy meeting and listening to residents to build a better Sheboygan. The people of Sheboygan deserve experienced, positive leadership. I make a personal commitment to Sheboygan residents to continue to move Sheboygan forward. I take pride in business growth, new housing and infrastructure projects we, as a community, have achieved. I firmly believe that my working to make Sheboygan a safe, affordable place to live, work and play is essential for continued growth. It has been an honor to serve two terms as your mayor that have brought Sheboygan to an exciting point in terms of economic development and vitality.
