The next Göttingen mayoral election is scheduled to be held on September 13, 2026, to elect the mayor of Göttingen, Germany (Oberbürgermeister der Stadt Göttingen). A runoff election is scheduled for September 27, 2026, if no candidate receives more than half of the valid votes in the first round. This market will resolve according to the candidate who becomes the next mayor of Göttingen as a result of this election. Temporary, interim, or placeholder mayors will not be considered. If the result of this election isn't known by April 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to “Other.” The primary resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting; however, if there is any ambiguity in the results, this market will resolve according to official information from the Stadt Göttingen, including its election office and municipal election committee.The open mayoral seat in Göttingen, with incumbent Petra Broistedt (SPD) not seeking re-election, has produced a four-candidate field for the September 13 first-round vote: Onyeka Oshionwu (Greens, backed by Volt), Florian Dinger (SPD), Ehsan Kangarani (CDU, supported by the FDP), and Thomas Goes (Left). Trader consensus reflects this fragmentation, with Oshionwu and Dinger holding the clearest leads while Kangarani and Goes trail. Local debates have centered on municipal finances, housing affordability, public safety, and climate policy, yet no single candidate has established a decisive edge in a city with strong university-driven progressive turnout alongside established party bases. A runoff on September 27 remains possible if no one secures an outright majority, sustaining tight probabilities until final vote shares and turnout patterns emerge.
