Just before the election on November 7, 2023, Houston Mayor candidate John Whitmire said, “Our team has been working tirelessly to earn your support. They know the importance of voting and making our voices heard through civic engagement. We have a great city but we have lots of housekeeping. If I’m fortunate enough to earn your vote as Houston’s next mayor, you’ll see a positive difference.”
The results of the election turned out Whitmire leads over other candidates but did not reach the majority of the votes. A run-off election is scheduled on December 9, 2023.
On the night after the election closed at 7:00PM, Whitmire said “I’m encouraged by tonight’s results. We are going to continue to campaign on improvements to public safety, infrastructure, city services, transparency in our city and our city finances. I’m looking forward to continuing to build a diverse coalition of Houstonians. As I’ve said before, no one’s gonna outwork me on this campaign. Let’s get to work!”
