Do not fill this in! ===Elections for Mayor of New York=== The Bronx has often shown striking differences from other boroughs in [[New York City mayoral elections|elections for Mayor]]. The only Republican to carry the Bronx since 1914 was [[Fiorello La Guardia]] in 1933, 1937, and 1941 (and in the latter two elections, only because his 30% to 32% vote on the [[American Labor Party]] line was added to 22% to 23% as a Republican).<ref>(The Republican line exceeded the ALP's in every other borough)</ref> The Bronx was thus the only borough not carried by the successful Republican re-election campaigns of Mayors [[Rudy Giuliani]] in 1997 and [[Michael Bloomberg]] in 2005. The anti-war [[Socialist Party of America|Socialist]] campaign of [[Morris Hillquit]] in the [[1917 New York City mayoral election|1917 mayoral election]] won over 31% of the Bronx's vote, putting him second and well ahead of the 20% won by the incumbent pro-war Fusion Mayor [[John Purroy Mitchel]], who came in second (ahead of Hillquit) everywhere else and outpolled Hillquit citywide by 23.2% to 21.7%.<ref>To see a comparison of borough votes for Mayor, see [[New York City mayoral elections#How the boroughs voted]].</ref> {| border="2" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" "border="2" cellpadding="3"; border-collapse:collapse; font-size:90%;" | colspan="8" style="background:#d5d5d5;" | {{center|'''The Bronx County vote for Mayor since 1953'''}} |- style="text-align:center;" |- style="background:#ff7;" ! style="text-align:center; background:#ffd588;" |Year ! style="text-align:center; background:#e5e5e5;" |Candidate carrying<br />the Bronx ! style="text-align:center; background:#f0f0f0;" |Elected Mayor |- | style="background:#ffd588;" |[[2021 New York City mayoral election|2021]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Eric Adams]],<br />D|| style="background:#edffff;" |[[Eric Adams]],<br />D |- | style="background:#ffd588;" |[[2017 New York City mayoral election|2017]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Bill de Blasio]],<br />D-[[Working Families Party|Working Families]] || style="background:#edffff;" |[[Bill de Blasio]],<br />D-[[Working Families Party|Working Families]] |- | style="background:#ffd588;" |[[2013 New York City mayoral election|2013]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Bill de Blasio]],<br />D-[[Working Families Party|Working Families]] || style="background:#edffff;" |[[Bill de Blasio]],<br />D-[[Working Families Party|Working Families]] |- | style="background:#ffd588;" |[[2009 New York City mayoral election|2009]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Bill Thompson (New York politician)|Bill Thompson]],<br />D-[[Working Families Party|Working Families]]|| style="background:#fff3f3;" |[[Michael Bloomberg]],<br />Rβ[[Independence Party of New York|Indep'ce]]/Jobs & Educ'n |- | style="background:#ffd588;" |[[2005 New York City mayoral election|2005]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Fernando Ferrer]], D || style="background:#fff3f3;" |[[Michael Bloomberg]], R/Lib-[[Independence Party of New York|Indep'ce]] |- | style="background:#ffd588;" |[[2001 New York City mayoral election|2001]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Mark Green (New York politician)|Mark Green]],<br />D-[[Working Families Party|Working Families]]|| style="background:#fff3f3;" |[[Michael Bloomberg]],<br />R-[[Independence Party of New York|Independence]] |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1997 New York City mayoral election|1997]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Ruth Messinger]], D|| style="background:#fff3f3;" |[[Rudy Giuliani]], R-Liberal |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1993 New York City mayoral election|1993]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[David Dinkins]], D || style="background:#fff3f3;" |[[Rudy Giuliani]], R-Liberal |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1989 New York City mayoral election|1989]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[David Dinkins]], D || style="background:#edffff;" |[[David Dinkins]], D |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1985 New York City mayoral election|1985]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Ed Koch]], D-Indep.|| style="background:#edffff;" |[[Ed Koch]], D-Independent |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1981 New York City mayoral election|1981]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Ed Koch]], D-R || style="background:#edffff;" |[[Ed Koch]], D-R |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1977 New York City mayoral election|1977]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Ed Koch]], D|| style="background:#edffff;" |[[Ed Koch]], D |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1973 New York City mayoral election|1973]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Abraham Beame]], D || style="background:#edffff;" |[[Abraham Beame]], D |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1969 New York City mayoral election|1969]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Mario Procaccino]],<br />D-Nonpartisan-Civil Svce Ind. || style="background:#fefeea;" |[[John Lindsay]], Liberal |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1965 New York City mayoral election|1965]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Abraham Beame]],<br />D-Civil Service Fusion || style="background:#fff3f3;" |[[John Lindsay]],<br />R-Liberal-Independent Citizens |- | style="background:#ffd588;" | [[1961 New York City mayoral election|1961]]|| style="background:#def;" |[[Robert F.
