本次选情看点集中在市长一职：现任市长Muriel Bowser不再寻求连任，民主党候选人Janese Lewis George（6月赢得党内初选）将对阵特区建州绿党的Robert Gross和独立候选人Rhonda Hamilton。此外，特区无投票权众议员席位也因Eleanor Holmes Norton不再参选而开放，民主党人Robert White对阵共和党人Dennis Rosado和建州绿党的Kymon Freeman。司法部长Brian Schwalb寻求连任，对手为共和党人Manuel Rivera；市议会主席Phil Mendelson、全市不分区议员席位及第86号倡议案（鹅肝禁令）也将一并表决。（GSM 据FOX 5 DC、特区选举委员会资料报道）
