The 2021 Lansing mayoral election was held on November 2, 2021, following a primary election on August 3, 2021. Incumbent Mayor Andy Schor ran for re-election to a second term. Schor originally faced a challenge from former Mayor Virgil Bernero, but following allegations of sexual harassment against Bernero, he dropped out of the race. Instead, Schor was challenged by two members of the City Council: Kathie Dunbar and Patricia Spitzley. Schor placed first in the primary election with 49 percent of the vote and advanced to the general election against Dunbar, who received 20 percent. Schor ended up defeating Dunbar by a wide margin, winning re-election 64–36 percent.
