Town of Henry schedules special election for trustee recall

The Town of Henry, South Dakota, a community whose roots run as deep as its proximity to the broader Watertown area, will hold a special election on Tuesday, April 9th, 2024, to decide whether to remove Terry Dosch from the office of Town Trustee. The election was officially announced on February 21st, 2024, with the notice published on March 6th, March 13th, and March 20th of the same year.

Residents of the Town of Henry will have the opportunity to cast their votes between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. on April 9th. The polling location for this special election is the Henry Senior Center, a familiar gathering spot for many in this close-knit town.

This election stems from a decision to submit the question of Terry Dosch's removal to the voters. The finance officer for the Town of Henry, Deb Jungclaus, signed the official notice, confirming the details of the upcoming vote, which will resonate through the community much like news travels across Lake Kampeska.

The purpose of this special election is to allow the electorate to directly address the position of a Town Trustee. The outcome will determine whether Dosch continues to serve in that capacity.

Further details regarding the election process, such as voter registration deadlines or absentee ballot procedures, were not included in the initial public notice. Residents seeking more information are advised to contact the Town of Henry's finance office.
