1921 Boston mayoral election


The Boston mayoral election of 1921 occurred on Tuesday, December 13, 1921. James Michael Curley, who had previously served as Mayor of Boston, was elected for the second time, defeating three other candidates.
In 1918, the Massachusetts state legislature had passed legislation making the Mayor of Boston ineligible to serve consecutive terms. Thus, incumbent Andrew James Peters was unable to run for re-election.
Due to the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920, this was the first Boston municipal election that women could vote in.
Curley was inaugurated on Monday, February 6, 1922.
