1913 Los Angeles mayoral election
The 1913 Los Angeles mayoral election took place on May 6, 1913, with a run-off election on June 3, 1913. George Alexander had retired from the job and police judge Henry H. Rose was elected over Los Angeles City Attorney John W. Shenk .[1]
Municipal elections in California, including Mayor of Los Angeles, are officially nonpartisan; candidates' party affiliations do not appear on the ballot.[2]
Election
With the retirement of incumbent George Alexander , the seat was now open. Los Angeles City Attorney John W. Shenk , previous election candidate Job Harriman , and police judge Henry H. Rose ran in the primary. Shenk, Good Government Organization politician, was nominated and endorsed by the Municipal Conference while Harriman was again nominated by the Socialist Party .[3] [4] [5]
In the runoff, many African-American newspapers urged the election of Rose due to Shenk's decision against C. W. Holden that caused discrimination against African-Americans.[6] [1]
