The 2022 Long Beach mayoral election was held on June 7, 2022. Because no candidate reached 50% of the vote, there was a runoff election on November 8, 2022. Although incumbent Mayor Robert Garcia was eligible to run for a third term, he opted to run for the U.S. House instead (and won that seat). Rex Richardson was elected mayor, defeating Suzie Price.

Candidates Melanie Becerril (write-in) Raul Cedillo, substitute teacher Deborah Mozer, commercial finance professional Suzie Price, Long Beach City Councilwoman Rex Richardson, Long Beach City Councilman and vice mayor Joshua Rodriguez, police officer Franklin Sims
