1925 Boston mayoral election
The Boston mayoral election of 1925 occurred on Tuesday, November 3, 1925. Malcolm Nichols, a former member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives and Massachusetts Senate, defeated nine other candidates to be elected mayor.
Many votes were split between three Democratic candidates (Glynn, O'Neil, Coakley), which was a factor in the election of Nichols, a Republican. While municipal elections in Boston have been nonpartisan since 1910, Nichols is the most recent Republican to be elected Mayor of Boston as of 2026.
In 1918, the Massachusetts state legislature had passed legislation making the Mayor of Boston ineligible to serve consecutive terms. Thus, incumbent James Michael Curley was unable to run for re-election.
Nichols was inaugurated on Monday, January 4, 1926.
