I may have missed it, but is there a limit of 1 term on a mayor?

I don't seem to be able to get to the election screen with the spending allocation when nominations come up once I have nominated a party member whilst holding the Mayorship.

I'm playing this DLC for probably the 5th time, and after a while not initially being able to find a way to spend/influence the elections, I found the guide on the website and found it on a reload of a save game. Since then, I don't seem to be able to have the spending allocations screen show for even the competitors when elections come up again. I even resorted to selecting a new candidate, but still, it didn't show.

I came off a base of 60% approval, and seemed to hold above 50% for the year of campaigning, but didn't win, nor could I change spending on it.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure what you are referring to as I don't have a screenshot. But if you untick both buttons in this menu (Mayor History and Election Results) you will get the current election details.

Does this help? It is a bit strange but typically I just select Political Parties at the bottom of the menu in any case.

Also you can run as many times as you want - you may need to continue funding for your party though as the opposing party will typically try to throw money at you to divert votes away from you.
