Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox election
The 2024 Haifa mayoral election will be held in January 2024 to elect the mayor of Haifa. Originally scheduled for October 31, 2023, the elections were delayed due to the 2023 Israel–Hamas war.[1]
Background
Haifa is led by Einat Kalisch-Rotem, who was first elected in 2018, defeating incumbent Yona Yahav.[2]
In July 2021, several parties in the City Council formed the Change Council, an informal coalition of parties opposing Kalisch-Rotem, which holds a majority on the City Council.[3] Later that month, two of Kalisch-Rotem's deputy mayors were removed from office by the City Council,[4] and replaced by Change Council members in August.[5]
On 13 June 2023, former Mayor Yona Yahav announced his intention to run for Mayor.[6]
