Fargo Wards for Equal Representation

09/25/2026

🔥🔥🔥 BIG ENDORSEMENT: Fargo Firefighters Local 642 support Fargo Wards! Their statement says it all: "Fargo firefighters work in every single neighborhood, and we know the difference between being heard and being told to "know our place. "

Right now, citywide campaigns require serious money, meaning city hall only listens to a powerful few. A ward system changes that. It breaks the city into smaller districts so a teacher, a nurse, or a retired firefighter can afford to run and knock on every door. It ensures every neighborhood gets a council member who actually lives there and answers to you.

Not voting IS NOT an option, but IS a vote for Fargo to not be represented equally in all parts of the city.

Vote YES for Wards on Oct. 6th.

✔️ FACT CHECK: There’s been a lot of rhetoric suggesting that changing Fargo’s form of government is some radical or unnecessary idea. A City Council with Wards is NOT a wild, new idea. They’re a well-established form of local government. In fact, 90% of North Dakota cities operate under a council form of government.
