Incumbent Mayor David Alvey will face multiple challengers in the August 3 primary election.

Citizens in Kansas City, Kansas, and Wyandotte County will decide many competitive races in the August 3 primary election, including mayor.

Incumbent Kansas City, Kansas Mayor David Alvey makes his case for why he deserves another term. "I would point to, frankly, my leadership during COVID," Alvey says. "What we did is really empowered our public heath department to do the hard work of following the virus, teaching us about it, [and] recommending and putting in place measures that would protect our citizens."

  • David Alvey, mayor of Kansas City, Kansas
