General elections were held in the City of Buenos Aires on 24 August 2003 to elect the Chief of Government (mayor) and entirety of the City Legislature. As no mayoral candidate won a majority in the first round, a runoff was held on 14 September 2003, in which incumbent Aníbal Ibarra, of the Broad Front, defeated Mauricio Macri of the Commitment to Change (CpC) coalition to be re-elected as Chief of Government of Buenos Aires.
The entirety of the City Legislature was elected for the last time, and following the election, through a draw it was decided which half of the elected legislators (30 out of 60) would complete a full four year-term, and which half would only serve a two year-term (due to be renewed in the 2005 legislative election).
The elections were due to be held in 2004, but were held earlier in order to unify the national electoral calendar with that of Buenos Aires City, following an agreement between Ibarra and President of Argentina Eduardo Duhalde.
