Mayor Election

Mayors are NPCs that give global buffs and perks when elected by players during an election with five random candidates which occurs every five real-life days. Players vote by entering the Election Room via the teleport pad in the Community Center while the voting period is open. Each mayor, with exceptions, has three perks, though not all three are available every time they run. Candidates for the next election are revealed and can be voted on from midnight on Late Summer 27th to midnight on Late Spring 27th of the following year, at which point the election ends and the mayor with the most votes is active. Candidates are more likely to appear with less of their perks than all three, especially if they have been recently elected.

Mayor Elections were added in Hypixel SkyBlock's 0.9 Update, with the first election taking place in SkyBlock Year 88. Whilst Dante is elected as mayor, all of the election events scheduled in the Calendar and Events menu are canceled and replaced with Dante Elections, where all five candidates are Dante.

Candidates
All descriptions quoted from Hypixel SkyBlock 0.9.

A pattern in Perks seems to be one (XP) Boost, one (Stat) Buff, and one Festival/Discount for each candidate. Perks apply to all SkyBlock islands unless stated otherwise.

The colors of the candidates' names seem to be dynamic and change based on placement position in the election room.

Dante Election
When Dante is elected, regular mayor elections are replaced with Dante Elections. All of the 5 candidates are replaced by Dante's clones and voting for one of them results in the vote being applied to all of the candidates. That means that the vote cannot be changed and the election result is always 100% for Dante. There used to be a bug where Seraphine is the clerk present in the Election Room instead of Clerk Goon, however, it was fixed.

Trivia

 * During the time the booth is open, players may change their vote. Players may cast only a single vote, but the weight of that vote is increased by the player's Fame Rank.
 * Once the election ends, the candidate with the most votes becomes Mayor for the next SkyBlock year, granting their perks to every SkyBlock player for that time period.
