The Indianapolis mayoral election of 1971 took place on November 2, 1971. This was the first election after the creation of the Unigov.[1] Incumbent Republican Richard Lugar was reelected to a second term. Lugar's challenger had been Democrat John Neff, a former state senator. Neff had campaigned in opposition to the Unigov, promising to seek its abolishment if elected.[2]
