The 2017 Los Angeles mayoral election was held on March 7, 2017 to elect the mayor of Los Angeles. Due to a change in the city's election calendar to align mayoral elections with statewide elections, the winner stood to serve a term of five years and four months instead of the usual four years.
Municipal elections in California are officially non-partisan. Incumbent Eric Garcetti won 81.4% of the vote in the primary, eliminating the need for a run-off. Voting turnout was one of the lowest in Los Angeles history at 11.45%.
