The 2022 Denton mayoral election was held on May 7, 2022, to elect the mayor of the city of Denton in the U.S. state of Texas. The election was nonpartisan, so both candidates appeared as independent on the ballot. Denton mayors have two-year terms.

Incumbent mayor Gerard Hudspeth[1] won re-election to his second term, defeating mayor pro tempore and at-large city council member Paul Meltzer in the May election by a close four point margin.[2][3][4][5]
