The New York City mayoral election of 1965 occurred on Tuesday, November 2, 1965, with Republican Congressman John Lindsay winning a close plurality victory over the Democratic candidate, New York City Comptroller Abraham Beame. Lindsay received 44.99% of the vote to Beame's 40.98%, a victory margin of 4.01%.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=79103 )〕 Finishing in a distant third was the candidate of the recently formed Conservative Party, conservative author and commentator William F. Buckley, Jr., who received 13.36% of the vote. Lindsay, a liberal Republican, also was the nominee of the Liberal Party. Beame also received the Civil Service ballot line. Lindsay won a decisive majority in Manhattan, while winning comfortable plurality victories in Queens and Staten Island. Beame won pluralities in the Bronx and Brooklyn. Linsday would be sworn in to office in January 1966, replacing outgoing Democratic Mayor Robert F. Wagner, Jr.. ==Results== Almost a quarter of Lindsay's vote (281,796) was on the Liberal Party line, while 63,590 of Beame's votes were on the Civil Service Fusion line. John Lindsay, a Republican Congressman from the "Silk-Stocking" District on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, carried Manhattan, Queens, and traditionally Republican Staten Island (Richmond), while Abe Beame, the City Comptroller, carried The Bronx and his home borough of Brooklyn, both of which he had also won in the Democratic primary. However, while Beame had also carried Queens in the primary, he lost it to Lindsay in the general election.〔Page 41 of the 1966 ''World Almanac & Book of Facts'' and page 69 of Cannato's (''The Ungovernable City: John Lindsay and His Struggle to Save New York'' )〕 (Five years later, Bill Buckley's brother James L.
