SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) -- Even though Mayor Paul TenHaken has been Sioux Falls' mayor for less than two months, he already has a declared opponent in 2022.
2018 putative mayoral candidate David Zokaites wrote on a message to KELO.com News news director Todd Epp's Facebook page that Zokaites is running in four years.
"I'm going to be the mayor of Sioux Falls in 4 years mostly so I can tell thousands of people what's going on," Zokaites wrote. "We're going to reclaim our government, our country, and our world! David Z for Mayor. Sioux Falls 2022."
Zokaites declared for mayor in 2018 but failed to obtain enough signatures to be placed on the April 2018 city election ballot. He did, however, produce a "Zokaites for Mayor" music video where he fought zombies prior to the ballot petition deadline in February.
