The 2025 Aalborg Municipal election was held on November 18, 2025, to elect the 31 members to sit in the regional council for the Aalborg Municipal council, in the period of 2026 to 2029.[1] Following the election, it was revealed that Lasse Frimand Jensen would continue as mayor, despite the Social Democrats losing 2 seats. [2] Jes Lunde from the Social Liberals, would later claim that he was offered the mayoral position by the right-wing bloc, but declined and instead supported the continuation of Frimand Jensen. [3]
Following the 2021 election Thomas Kastrup-Larsen from the Social Democrats won the mayoral position of Aalborg Municipality for a third term.[4] However, Kastrup-Larsen resigned as mayor in March 2023, in what TV2 described as a shock statement.[5] Following this, Lasse Frimand Jensen took over the job, also from the Social Democrats, as mayor of the municipality.[6]
Electoral system
For elections to Danish municipalities, a number varying from 9 to 31 are chosen to be elected to the municipal council. The seats are then allocated using the D'Hondt method and a closed list proportional representation. Aalborg Municipality had 31 seats in 2025.
Unlike in Danish general elections, electoral alliances are allowed in elections to municipal councils.
