Mayor before election Helle Barth[a] Venstre Mayor after election Kenneth Gøtterup Conservatives

Following the 2017 election, Eik Dahl Bidstrup from Venstre won his 2nd consecutive term as mayor of Dragør Municipality.^[1]

In March 2021, Eik Dahl Bidstrup stepped down as mayor after he had accepted an offer to become chairman of Kristelig Fagbevægelse. It would be Helle Barth, also from Venstre, who would take over the last months before this election.^[2]

In this election, the Conservatives would gain 3 seats, and become the largest party with a total of 6 seats. They would manage to find an agreement with the Social Democrats and Venstre, seeing Kenneth Gøtterup from the Conservatives become the first mayor of the municipality since 2006.^[3][4]
