In four of the five regions, the incumbent chairman kept the position. However, in the North Denmark Region, an agreement was made between Venstre, the Danish People's Party, New Right and the Conservative People's Party to give the chairmanship to Mads Duedahl of Venstre. This was the first time since the region's establishment in 2007 that the Social Democrats did not win the region's chairmanship.[2]
The mayors (Danish: borgmester; plural: borgmestre) of the 98 municipalities head the council meetings and are the chair of the finance committee in each of their respective municipalities. Only in Copenhagen, this mayor – the head of the finance committee and council meetings – is called the lord mayor (Danish: overborgmester).
The term of office for the mayors elected by the majority of councillors among its members in each municipal council is the same as for the councils elected, namely 1 January 2022 until 31 December 2025. The correct name for the municipality on the somewhat remote island of Bornholm is Regional Municipality, because the municipality also handles several tasks not carried out by the other Danish municipalities but by the regions.
