The Albuquerque mayoral election of 2009 occurred on October 6, 2009.[1]
In July 2009, incumbent Mayor Martin Chávez announced that he would seek a fourth term.
Former State Senator Richard Romero (D) also ran.[2]
State Representative Richard Berry won the election with 36,466 votes (43.82%) to Chavez's 29,140 votes (35.02%) and Romero's 17,458 (20.98%) Write-in candidates won 149 votes, or .18% of the total. Although Berry received less than 50 percent of the vote, Albuquerque election law requires a runoff only if no candidate receives at least 40 percent of the vote.[3]
