The Tucson mayoral election of 2007 occurred on November 6, 2007 to elect the mayor of Tucson, and occurred coinciding with the elections to the Tucson City Council wards 1, 2 and 4.[1] It saw the reelection of incumbent mayor Bob Walkup.
Nominations
Primaries were held for the Democratic, Green, and Republican parties on September 11, 2011.[1]
Democratic primary
The Democratic Party saw Michael Toney, a write-in candidate win 1,147 votes, or 22.96% of the vote. This was insufficient to capture the nomination.[1] The Democrats did not ultimately have a candidate in the general election.[1]
As there was no Democratic nominee, Walkup's main challenger was Green Party nominee Dave Croteau, who he had also previously faced in the 1999 mayoral election when Croteau ran as a write-in candidate.[2]
