The Boston mayoral election of 1869 saw the reelection of Nathaniel B. Shurtleff to a third consecutive term.
The city's Democratic Party committees decided against renominating incumbent Democratic mayor Nathaniel B. Shurtleff. Thereafter, a "Citizen" movement was formed for the purposes of providing a party to nominate Surtleff for reelection. This movement also nominated candidates for the coinciding Boston City Council elections. The city's Republicans had originally nominated Major Chadwick. However, Chadwick opted to withdraw his candidacy, [2] and the Republican Party thereafter decided to also place Shurtleff as their nominee. The Democratic Party nominated Alderman George P. Baldwin. [3] The Prohibition Party nominated George H. Johnston, [4] a city alderman. [1] Nathaniel Chase was nominated by Labor Reform. [4]
