Keith Ogle will seek a second term as mayor in the April 1, 2025 election.

FRANKFORT, IL — Frankfort Mayor Keith Ogle has announced that he is seeking a second term in the April 1, 2025 election.

“It has truly been my privilege to serve as mayor, and I thank the voters for the trust they placed in me to lead our village,” Ogle said in a release. "When I ran, I told Frankfort voters that I wanted to be part of making our village a better place to live, not just for today, but for tomorrow. That we needed a place for our young families as well as for our senior citizens, and everyone in between. But the job is not done, and I need your help to continue working for all of you."

Four years ago, Ogle was elected to succeed retiring Mayor Jim Holland who served for 16 years.
During his campaign, Ogle laid out a detailed platform and vision to move Frankfort forward and
address concerns from residents in the village. These areas included public safety, infrastructure,
economic development, and social and cultural vibrancy, according to a release.
