TBD

The 2024 mayoral election will be held on November 5, 2024.[6] Incumbent mayor Farrah Khan, who was first sworn into office in 2020 is prevented from seeking re-election by term limits.[7]

Background

Although Irvine's municipal elections are officially nonpartisan, candidates tend to associate themselves with either the Democratic Party or Republican Party.[6] In July 2023, term-limited incumbent mayor Farrah Khan had announced that she would run for the third district seat of the Orange County Board of Supervisors.[8]

In June 2022, ahead of the 2022 mayoral election, councilmembers Tammy Kim and Mike Carroll had introduced an agenda item to the Irvine City Council, which would have removed the mayoral seat from the ballot and switched it to an office appointed by the city council.[9] Kim alleged that she had never endorsed the move to change the seat, and had only agreed to serve as a second on the motion vote in exchange for Carroll's support for a different motion on the agenda. The day before the meeting, Carroll had attempted to pull the agenda-setting rule off the agenda following "strong public backlash", including official condemnation from the Orange County Democratic Party; nonetheless, it was brought to a vote and the city councilmembers voted to repeal the rule.[10] Had the rule passed, Irvine would have been the largest city in the United States without a directly elected mayor.[9]

In 2014, Irvine voters had approved a rule to its city charter such that councilmembers and the mayors can serve no more than two full 2 year terms for life.[6] Agran is one of the longest serving city council members in Orange County, having served for over three decades on and off the city council since 1978,[11] alongside serving as mayor for five non-consecutive 2 year terms.[12] In December 2022, Agran had resigned with a week left on his term in order to run for another four years on the city council, which prompted his colleague and now-fellow mayoral contender Tammy Kim to call it a "slippery power grab" and asking Agran if "40 years on the city council [was] not enough".[13]
