Incumbent Republican Mayor Todd Strange, who had been elected to a partial term and two full terms as mayor, did not seek re-election to a fourth full term in office.
The election was officially nonpartisan.
With no candidate receiving a majority of the vote, a runoff election was held between the top two candidates. Two candidates, Montgomery County Probate Judge Steven Reed and businessman David Woods, made it to the October 8 runoff, with Reed winning the runoff.
Reed then became the city's first African-American mayor after being sworn in on November 12, 2019.[1][2]
