The Cleveland mayoral election of 1967 saw the election of Carl Stokes. Stokes was the first elected African American mayor of a major American city (Cleveland was, at the time, the ninth largest city in the United States). His election came alongside the election of Richard G. Hatcher in the 1967 Gary, Indiana mayoral election. Together, these were the first elections of African-Americans as mayors of cities over 100,000. Stoke's election came in a city which was, at the time, 68% white.
