St. Cloud City Council Ward 4 Representative Mike Conway Reacts to Tuesday Victory

(KNSI) — St. Cloud’s Ward 4 City Councilman Mike Conway has won re-election.

Conway beat challenger Hassan Yussuf with 60% of the vote but says he only knew if he had the seat once the last ballot was counted. “I was happily surprised at the totals. You never go in expecting anything. You’re always assuming you’re behind, and you keep working.”

Conway says he will focus on reducing crime and making St. Cloud a safer place to live and visit. He also wants to make infrastructure improvements and says that means more than roads and bridges. “It’s also finding some housing so that we can attract those workers that are coveted to come to St. Cloud and allow those workers to be able to purchase homes in the St. Cloud area so they can be part of the wealth-building community that we have to offer here.”

Conway says his message four years ago was to “be a voice for the City of St. Cloud and especially the residents of the Fourth Ward,” adding he will discuss any issues with anyone and bring those concerns to the city council.

This will be Conway’s second term in office.
