Meyer wins mayor’s race, ready to get to work

David C. Meyer knew what a loss would mean. His term on the Little Falls City Council was expiring. Rather than seek another term, he chose to run for mayor. If voters went another direction, his time at City Hall would be over. On Tuesday, Nov. 3, they gave him a different job. Meyer defeated incumbent Mayor Greg J. Zylka by 180 votes in a four-way race, receiving 1,059 votes, or 37.65%, according to unofficial results from the Minnesota Secretary of State’s Office. Zylka received 879 votes, or 31.25%. Laura Czech finished third with 769 votes, or 27.34%, followed by Tony (Anthony) Schmolke with 97 votes, or 3.45%. Nine write-in votes were recorded. Results remain unofficial until canvassed. For Meyer, who is completing his first council term, the outcome brought relief — and an eagerness to begin. “I’m excited to get to work for Little Falls,” he said in an interview Wednesday, Nov. 4. Meyer said he began laying the groundwork for a mayoral run in the spring. His council service had put him in regular contact with residents and their concerns. He wanted a stronger voice in addressing them. Support from his family and people in the community helped
