An election for Mayor of New York City was held on November 8, 1892. Incumbent mayor Hugh J. Grant was not a candidate for a third consecutive term in office.[1] He was succeeded by Thomas Francis Gilroy, who defeated Republican Edwin Einstein in a landslide. Gilroy's margin of victory "exceed[ed] by nearly 20,000 the greatest majority obtained by a New York mayoralty candidate in twenty-four years."[2]
