An election for Mayor of Tampa was held on March 5, 2019. The election is officially nonpartisan, and the winner is elected to a four-year term.
Incumbent mayor Bob Buckhorn was not eligible to run for a third term.[1] Buckhorn was first elected in 2011 (winning in the second round with 62.86% of the vote) and reelected unopposed in 2015. Jane Castor and David Straz headed off into a runoff election on April 23, 2019, as no candidate received the majority fifty percent.[2][3] Castor defeated Straz in the runoff election, becoming mayor-elect of Tampa.
