The 1898 Wellington City mayoral election was part of the New Zealand local elections held that same year to decide who would take the office of Mayor of Wellington for the following year.
The incumbent mayor John Rutherfurd Blair stood for a second term and was re-elected unopposed.[1] The MP for (and former mayor) George Fisher initially intended to stand against Blair, as he had done at the previous election. However he retired from the race before nominations closed.[2] It was the fourth election since 1875 that the mayoralty was uncontested.
