2024 is another election year in Webkinz Classic as we ask our citizens to cast a vote for mayor on November 29th!
We first held elections for Mayor of Kinzville in 2014, and back then we had 6 candidates running: Cowabelle, Salley Cat, Dex Dangerous, Daisy Doe, Sheldon Turtle, and Ms. Cowoline.
Players could log in to receive an election cap for each of the candidates, and also visit the WShop to pick up an election sign for their favorite.
After all the votes were counted, Cowabelle was elected the first Mayor of Kinzville! As part of her campaign promise, the ability to purchase underwater and treetop rooms was unlocked for all players.
In 2016, Cowabelle decided to step down– and this time, only 4 candidates ran for mayor: Amanda Panda, Dex Dangerous, Dr. Quack, and Salley Cat. During this election, players could find each candidate during different weeks at the Kinzville Park giving out a gift box containing a random prize: an election sign, a candidate plushy, or a candidate cap.
After voting, Dr. Quack was elected as the new Mayor of Kinzville. As part of his election promise, he created a new smoothie recipe food that could boost a pet’s Health, Happiness, and Hunger all to 100%
In 2018, the candidates for mayor were Dr. Quack (running as the incumbent), Dex Dangerous, PJ Collie, and Sophie Stockwell. Players could once again find each candidate on different weeks in the Kinzville Park giving out a gift box containing a 2018 version of their election sign, plushy, and cap.
This time the Citizens of Kinzville elected Sophie Stockwell as mayor. Her campaign promise was to start awarding eStore prizes each month to everyone as part of a new series of Player Appreciation Days.
In 2020, the candidates were Sophie, Dr. Quack, Dex Dangerous, and Alyssa Fairy.
After losing the previous election, Dr. Quack was voted back in as Mayor of Kinzville. As part of his campaign promise, he re-opened a new version of his clinic in the Webkinz Classic Clubhouse, where pets could get a Health, Happiness, Energy, and Pet Heart boost by sitting on an examination table. Dr. Quack would also give out 1 random clinic lollipop per day.
In 2022, the candidates were Dr. Quack, Goober, PJ Collie, and Nibbles.
The newly elected Mayor of Kinzville this time was Goober. As part of his campaign promise, a new prize was added to the Wheel of WOW for every update.
Now in 2024, election season has returned to Kinzville and Goober is once again running for mayor. Check out his re-election announcement last week on Webkinz Newz here. Also, make sure you visit Goober every day in the Webkinz Classic Kinzville Park until November 7th to get a daily gift box!
Also running for mayor in 2024 is Arte Fact, Sophia Souffle, and Debbie Dragon! Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz as each candidate makes their announcement and visit the Webkinz Classic Kinzville Park every day to collect a gift box from them on the week that they appear!

I want a mayor that will bring back visiting friends houses
Sally Webkinz classic is not working for me. I cannot log in. what happened?
Make sure you quit and relaunch. There is an update required to login
What I would do for those past years hats!
Send a friend request to this UN. Will see what I can do.
Is your UN the same as here?
Wow!! What a throwback, I remember all of these! I joined here in October of 2014, so I was able to (just barely) witness the 2014 election season. I remember voting for Cowabelle (who ultimately won) because she promised to let all members use the underwater and treetop rooms regardless of having an underwater or flying pet! Next I remember we had Dr. Quack because we all missed him so much since he had just retired from being Webkinz World’s beloved doctor. I think from then onward most of the votes have mostly either been spurred by the nostalgia of seeing a retired candidate show up again or by prizes.
Sadly I don’t think I ever got any of the signs or plushies from the older elections except maybe the 2016 one, but I’ve since traded most of these items away. Regretfully. These are worth so much more now than they would’ve been when I traded them away.
I think this is also the only time since 2014 where Quack hasn’t run for mayor
FoxesRule612, I have assorted items from past elections and from different years. If you are interested let me know. user name is mamakinz10 on classic. Friend me
Wow, thank you! You are too generous!!
Is your UN the same as here. My UN on classic is mamakinz10. Send me a friend request and I will send what I have
I have received a 2024 Goober Campaign Sign for 4 straight days from collecting his gift in the park. I sure hope he runs out of signs so I can get the other prizes in the 3 days left!
I can trade you! Add me gochacha41
I had no access to a computer from 2016 – 2019; and I therefore missed those elections. Would anyone with xtras of Dr Quack and Amanda hats from 2016 or xtras of PJ or Dex hats from 2018, consider helping me out? Thanks in advance, if so. UN is noonesfriend
I thought I still had the hats but I must have sold them a few years back. I have a Dex plush from 2018 if you’d like that.
Friend, thanks for the generous offer; but you keep your plush, as I too had a surplus of those, from who knows where ! lol Thanks again. BTW I love your UN Brings back childhood memories.
I am always hoping to see Fiona Feathers run with a promise to allow even just one kinzpost a day be sent and received for free accounts. I have so many friends on my list who play regularly but are free accounts.
That WOULD be great, but if that were to happen, it would permanently ruin the fun of trading because people would just use this to milk prizes and send them en masse to their main accounts. It’s a great idea but it would ruin a lot unfortunately because of greedy people.
i do that but only for trading purposes :/ would be nice
People already funnel items from secondary accounts to their main accounts. I don’t think that would be a huge new development to trading. Most people I know who play the game seriously, pay to maintain several accounts just to have extras of prize items or in cases like Santakinz to have one of each gift, I would hardly call that greedy. Probably 9 out of 10 people trading are already trading extras from secondary accounts. They could just make it less to keep a better balance so it doesn’t greatly impact trading, like one per week, bi weekly or one per month… what ever they think would be most fair and balanced to everyone.
Maybe as an alternative, there could be one or two days a month that allow for one kinzpost or one trading transaction for free players. (Since a lot of the other campaign promises have been monthly things.) Like maybe every 15th and 30th to keep it consistent. And I was actually just wondering what happened to Fiona, it’s been a while since we’ve heard from her I think.
Yes, even one a month would be a nice treat. Maybe they can send one post a month and receive one post a week. That way they could potentially have more than one friend send them a gift for holidays and such but still keep a bigger limit on them sending back, since them sending posts seems to be the bigger issue.
I am using a daughter’s older, free account, to post this, due to current site wide issue. One of my daughters says this appears to be a bot net attack; which attacks ( among other specifics ) LOG IN info. Whatever is going on THANK YOU GANZ TEAM for your excellent work to keep our info protected. We shall all wait patiently, and eagerly for our entrance back into our wonderful Webkinz World.
This was not an attack. The server issue has been resolved. You can log in normally now.
Thanks, Sally. Glad it was not an attack. Wording in message set off alarm bells in view of recent articles. Webkinz team much appreciated.
