The 2024 Sacramento mayoral election will be held on March 5, 2024 to elect the mayor of Sacramento, California.

Municipal elections in California are nonpartisan. If none of the candidates receive above 50% of the vote, the top two candidates will face off in the general election on November 5, 2024.

Background

Incumbent Mayor Darrell Steinberg was first elected as Sacramento mayor in 2016 and reelected in 2020. In 2020, he said he did not plan to seek a third term in office, even though his Strong-mayor ballot measure would have allowed him to seek a third term since it would not apply to his first term, which had occurred before its intended passage. However, since Measure A was voted down by 57% of Sacramento voters, he would be able to run for a third term regardless.

In February 2023, he stated that he was "officially undecided" and that he was "holding the option open". His Chief of Staff Mary Lynne Vellinga stated that he would make his announcement by the end of May 2023. On May 23, he announced that he would run for the office of California Attorney General instead.
