HELENA — Helena mayor-elect Emily Dean says Election Night was a “whirlwind,” but now she’s ready to move forward and start getting to work for the city.

“We have a lot on the list, and I would like to keep this momentum up and keep things moving,” she told MTN on Wednesday.

Dean will move into the mayor’s seat after six years on the Helena City Commission.
