Kevin Lee Faulconer[1] (born January 24, 1967) is an American politician who served as the 36th mayor of San Diego, California from 2014 to 2020. A member of the Republican Party, Faulconer served as the member of the San Diego City Council for the 2nd district from 2006 to 2014.[2]
Faulconer was born in San Jose, California and grew up in Oxnard. He entered politics in the 1990s to work on the campaigns for then-Governor Pete Wilson; he began to run in San Diego City Council elections to represent the 2nd district in the early 2000s. He was elected in a 2005 special election and was re-elected in landslides in 2006 and in 2010. In late 2013, he announced his candidacy for the mayorship of San Diego which he later won. He was sworn in on March 3, 2014.[3] He was re-elected in 2016, but he was not eligible to run in the 2020 election due to term limits.
Faulconer is considered to be a moderate Republican, holding fiscally conservative and socially liberal views.[4][5][6] He announced his candidacy for Governor of California on February 1, 2021, and was one of the main candidates in the 2021 gubernatorial recall election, placing third in a field of 46 replacement candidates.[7]
