The Indianapolis mayoral election of 1995 took place on November 7, 1995. Incumbent Republican mayor Stephen Goldsmith was easily reelected to a second term. His Democratic opponent, Zilthia Mae Jimison, was the first African-American nominated for mayor of Indianapolis by a major political party.
Goldsmith would run unsuccessfully for governor in 1996, narrowly losing to Democrat Frank OâÂÂBannon.
