# 2024 Salvador mayoral election

The 2024 Salvador municipal election took place in the city of Salvador, Brazil on 6 October 2024. Voters will elect a mayor, vice mayor, and 43 councillors. The incumbent mayor, Bruno Reis, of the Brazil Union (UNIÃO), is able to run for a second term.
If the most voted candidate on the first round doesn't achieve more than 50% of the votes, a second round will happen on 27 October 2024. The mayor's term will begin on 1 January 2025 and end on 31 December 2028.

## Background
### 2020 election

The last mayoral election in Rio de Janeiro, held in 2020, resulted in a largest victory of Bruno Reis (DEM) in the first round. Reis obtained 779.408 votes or 64.20% of the valid votes against his main opponent. He had been vice mayor of the municipality under popular incumbent ACM Neto. His election was viewed as a continued endorsement of ACM Neto's mayorship.
Reis later supported ACM Neto's unsuccessful bid for governor in 2022.
