The 1963 Baltimore mayoral election saw the former mayor and governor Theodore McKeldin return to office for a second non-consecutive term as mayor by defeating incumbent mayor Philip H. Goodman.
To date, this is the last time a Republican won a mayoral election in Baltimore. It is also the last time a Republican managed even 30% of the city's vote.
Primary elections were held March 5.
Among those challenging for the Democratic nomination Goodman were Comptroller R. Walter Graham, Jr. and City Council President Leon Abramson.
The general election was held May 7.
