Hudnut III Republican Party (United States) William H. Hudnut III Republican Party (United States) The Indianapolis mayoral election of 1983 took place on November 8, 1983, and saw the reelection of Republican William H. Hudnut III to a third term. In 1982, the two-term limit on the mayoralty was removed (leaving no limits on the number of terms). This enabled Hudnut to run for a, previously prohibited, third term. Top prospective Democratic candidates declined to run, and Hudnut ultimately faced John J. Sullivan, a newcomer to political campaigning.Owen James York Wilbern Governing Metropolitan Indianapolis: The Politics of Unigov University of California Press 175 and 176 Results Indianapolis mayoral election, 1983 Republican Party (United States) William H.
