2025 Prince George's County executive special election

The 2025 Prince George's County executive special election was held on June 3, 2025, to fill in the last two years of Prince George's County executive Angela Alsobrooks's term, who resigned on December 2, 2024, following her election to the U.S. Senate. Upon her resignation, the county's chief administrative officer, Tara Jackson, became the acting county executive.

Primary elections were held on March 4, 2025, with state's attorney Aisha Braveboy securing the Democratic nomination and Jonathan White winning the Republican nomination. Democrats enjoy an overwhelming advantage in voter registration in the county; as a result, victory in the Democratic primary is tantamount to election. Braveboy easily defeated White in the general election.
