I'm Running for Mayor of Corpus Christi

Corpus Christi, I have an announcement to make: I'm running to be your next Mayor.

Serving you on the City Council has been the honor of my life. In December 2024, the voters of District 4 - Padre Island, Flour Bluff, and the Bay Area - put their trust in me, and since taking office in January 2025 I have worked every day to be worthy of it. I am honored to also serve as your Mayor Pro Tem, and that service has shown me both how much our city government can accomplish and how much work remains to be done.

Now I'm asking the whole city to join me. On November 3, 2026, Corpus Christi will choose its next Mayor - and I believe our city deserves leadership that has proven its dedication to the entire community.

The Same Fight, for Every Neighborhood

What I promised District 4 is what I'll deliver for all of Corpus Christi:

Transparency and accountability. No backroom deals. Consistent community conversations, and a government that answers to you - not to special interests.

Reliable water for our future. Our city's growth and our families' security depend on getting water right, and it will stay at the top of the agenda.

Real infrastructure, not temporary fixes. A comprehensive, accountable plan for our streets and drainage, with clear timelines and results you can see in your own neighborhood.

Protecting your dollars. A conservative, common-sense budget that eliminates wasteful spending, holds the line on taxes and fees, and lives within its means - just like your family does.

This Campaign Belongs to You

I have no personal interest in my pursuit of public service. My passion is my community; my strategy is to thrive and grow #together.

Every door we knock, every conversation we have, and every neighbor who joins this effort brings your voice closer to City Hall. If you're ready to help, sign up to volunteer or support the campaign today.

Thank you, Corpus Christi. Let's get to work.

In service,

Kaylynn Paxson
