Directly elected mayor ballot measure

Voters will decide in November 2026 whether Palmdale should have a directly elected mayor starting in 2028, instead of the current rotation among councilmembers. Supporters filled the chamber; opponents raised legal risks under the California Voting Rights Act and concerns about the process.
