Ballot measures
Amendment 1, 2006

Serving as acting mayor, following the resignation of Republican mayor Bill Haslam to serve as Governor of Tennessee and in the months before the individual elected in this race would take office, was Daniel Brown, who did not seek a full term as mayor.

Since no candidate secured a majority in the first round, a runoff was held between the top-two finishers.

The election saw Rogero become the first woman elected mayor of Knoxville. She is also the first woman to be elected mayor in any of the "Big Four" cities of Tennessee (Memphis, Nashville, Knoxville and Chattanooga).
