2011 San Antonio mayoral election

On May 14, 2011, the city of San Antonio, Texas held an election to choose who would serve as Mayor of San Antonio for a two-year term to expire in 2013. Julian Castro, the incumbent Mayor, was re-elected with over 81% of the vote, earning a second term. The election was officially nonpartisan as prescribed by Texas law.

Background
Julian Castro, who was first elected mayor in the 2009 mayoral election, opted to seek re-election as mayor. The three main challengers that challenged him in 2009 (Trish DeBerry-Mejia, Diane Cibrian and Sheila McNeil), opted not to seek a re-match, and at the closing of the filing period, faced only four challengers.

Declared

 * Julian Castro, incumbent Mayor of San Antonio.
 * Michael "Commander" Idrogo
 * Will McLeod
 * James Rodriguez
 * Rhett R. Smith

Results
On May 14, 2011, the election for Mayor was held. Julian Castro secured re-election with over 81% of the vote, thus negating the need of a runoff election (which would have been required if no candidate got 50%+1 of all votes cast).

* Vote percentage include all of Bexar County with a total of 10,538 either voting in another municipal election, casting a spoiled vote or casting no ballot for San Antonio mayor.
