Cass County Auditor Dale Sunderman reports that as of noon Friday (Aug. 23rd), no nomination papers had been filed to fill the vacant position of Mayor for the City of Massena. Noon was the deadline to file nomination papers with the City Clerk. Sunderman says since no nominations were filed, no candidate’s name will appear on the ballot. All votes will be cast by write-in.  When the votes are canvassed by the Cass County Board of Supervisors, the person who received the greatest number of votes on September 17 will be declared elected.

The Massena special city election will be held September 17, 2013. The voting center will be the Massena Public Library, 122 Main St., Massena. The polls will open at 12:00 noon and close at 8:00 P.M.
