2022 North Las Vegas mayoral election

The 2022 North Las Vegas mayoral election was held on November 8, 2022, to elect the next mayor of North Las Vegas, Nevada. Incumbent mayor John Jay Lee retired to run unsuccessfully for governor of Nevada.

Background
In 2017, John Jay Lee was reelected with 80.77% of the vote. He was initially elected as a Democrat, though after more progressive factions took control of the state party in 2021, he switched his affiliation to the Republican Party, and chose to run for Governor of Nevada. With the open seat in a heavily Democratic city, several Democrats saw an opportunity to win the open seat.
