The 2023 Columbus mayoral election took place on November 7, 2023 to elect the mayor of Columbus, Ohio. Incumbent Democratic mayor Andrew Ginther was re-elected to a third term in office.[1] A primary election would have been held in May, but because only two candidates qualified for the race, both advanced directly to the November general election.[2] Two write-in candidates were later certified to the general election ballot. Mayoral elections in Columbus are officially non-partisan but candidates are often endorsed by their parties.
