Portland, Maine mayoral election, 2011

The 2011 Portland, Maine mayoral election took place on November 8, 2011. In November 2010, Portland voters approved a citywide referendum changing the city charter to recreate an elected mayor position that had previously been removed in 1923.〔(Maine Voices | Why Portland doesn't have an elected mayor by Abraham Peck ), Portland Press Herald, September 27, 2010〕 From 1923 until 2011, city councilors chose one of themselves each year to serve as mayor, a primarily ceremonial position. On November 8, 2011, former State Senator and candidate for U.S. Congress Michael F. Brennan was elected. On December 5, 2011, he was sworn in as the first citizen-elected mayor in 88 years.
The new citizen-elected mayor serves full-time in the position for a four-year term, exercises the powers and duties enumerated in Article II Section 5 of the Portland City Charter,〔(Portland City Charter ) SEE: Article II Section 5. Mayor’s powers and duties.〕 be elected using instant-runoff voting,〔(Ranked Choice Voting ) City of Portland, Maine〕 and, like the rest of municipal government in Portland, be officially non-partisan.〔(Portland, Maine, to get popularly elected mayor ) Boston Globe, November 4, 2010〕

The declared candidates filed paperwork with city hall to allow them to raise funds for their campaigns. The nomination papers became available on July 1 and the candidates were required to submit at least 300 valid signatures of Portland voters between August 15 and August 29 to be placed on the November ballot.〔 As of the August 29 deadline, 16 candidates submitted their nomination petitions, and 15 petitions were validated: Bragdon, Brennan, Bryant, Carmona, Dodge, Duson, Eder, Haadoow, Lapchick, Marshall, Mavodones, Miller, Rathband, Strimling, and Vail. Bennett fell five signatures short of the required 300.〔〔(Four gone 15 left: Field for Portland mayor now fits in a van ), Portland Press Herald, August 31, 2011〕
