=History=
Prior to 1925 (and since 1999) the mayor of Cincinnati, Ohio was elected in a separate, partisan election.
In 1924, the Charter Party, a local third-party, was founded. It has successfully elected members of the city council and mayors. Until 1961, many Democrats ran as Charterites. The party focuses exclusively on local government; thus, many Charterites switch to a major party when seeking office outside Cincinnati.
From 1925 through 1998, the mayor was chosen by the city council from among its nine members.
In 1971, a coalition of two parties, the Democrats and the Charterites, worked out a power-sharing plan, which, starting in 1973, resulted in a rotating mayorship. After a few years of rotation, they decided that the city council member who received the most votes in the election would automatically become mayor.
In 1999, Charlie Luken became the first mayor to take office under a restored system of direct mayoral election.
