2014
The election in St. Cloud featured three at-large seats up for general election on November 4, 2014. The primary election was held on August 12, 2014. Incumbents Peter Hamerlinck, Bruce Mohs and Jerry Von Korff ran against challengers Hassan Abdullahi Yussuf, Michael Conway and Bruce Hentges for the seats. The primary election narrowed the candidate field from seven to six, which removed Scott Andreasen from the race. Hentges announced on September 18, 2014, that he was informally withdrawing from the race due to personal reasons, but he still appeared on the November ballot.[2]
