Mayor Monitor assesses the performance of mayors from across the world. More


How good is
your mayor?

City Mayors provides Mayor Monitor (MM) to allow residents and non-residents to rate the performance of mayors from across the world as well as highlight their ‘best’ and ‘worst’ decisions. Mayor Monitor uses the widely understood one-to-ten rating system, where '1' signifies an extremely poor performance and '10' ‘an outstanding one. In addition to rating mayors’ performances, citizens are invited to highlight the best and worst decisions by city leaders.

Over time, Mayor Monitor will provide a valuable track record of mayors’ successes and failures as well as their popularity among residents and a wider public. The results will be published on the City Mayors website and updated monthly. The ratings will also become a contributory factor of World Mayor 2010.

You may assess a mayor of your choice or select one from our existing list of mayors. Once a mayor has received a sufficient number of assessments he or she will be added to our list.
