The 2017 Lansing mayoral election was held on November 7, 2017, following a primary election on August 8, 2017. Incumbent Mayor Virgil Bernero declined to seek a fourth term, and a crowded race developed to succeed him. State Representative Andy Schor placed first in the primary election by a wide margin, winning 68 percent of the vote, and he advanced to the general election with City Councilwoman Judi Brown Clarke, who won 23 percent of the vote. Schor ultimately defeated Clarke by a wide margin, winning 72 percent of the vote to Clarke's 28 percent.
