	For the record, Sheila Dixon's resignation becomes effective on February 4th, so this'll have to be changed then. While the mayors in California may all be affiliated with political parties, local elections in California are all officially nonpartisan; there's no DEM or REP next to their names on the ballot. So while it may be publicly known what party they're affiliated with, they're weren't elected as such. I'm not sure if you'd want to change that or not.

	Yes, I'm fully aware of both points you have raised. However, seeing as how Sheila Dixon hasn't stepped down yet, she remains unquestionably the mayor of Baltimore. I know who her successor will be, and I shall change the answer as soon as said successor is sworn in in a couple of weeks. As for your second point, I am fully aware that most mayoral offices are non-partisan. However, a mayor's election to a non-partisan office does not change their party of personal choice and/or registration. In this quiz, I'm asking after the person serving the office, and not the office proper. I shall change all the "unaffiliated" mayors to "unknowns" and I shall do more research. And also, I'm from California. I know about the nature of our state's local and municipal elections.

	Interesting to see the vast majority of these are Democrats. Awesome!! (Strongest and most liberal democrat here).

	It's not true that most mayoral offices are non-partisan. They're non-partisan in California, certainly, and some other states. But in many states they are not. Just off the top of my head, D.C., Maryland, New York, and Pennsylvania all definitely hold partisan mayoral elections.
