지역 정가의 이목이 쏠렸던 27개 기초단체장 선거에서는 더불어민주당이 총 22곳을 쓸어 담으며 압승을 거두었다.
광주 권역(구청장)에서는 ▲임택(동구) ▲김이강(서구) ▲김병내(남구) ▲신수정(북구) ▲박병규(광산구) 후보 등 5개 구청장 자리를 민주당이 전원 석권했다.
전남 권역(시장·군수)에서도 민주당의 강세가 이어졌다. ▲강성휘(목포시장) ▲서영학(여수시장) ▲손훈모(순천시장) ▲윤병태(나주시장) ▲박종원(담양군수) ▲조상래(곡성군수) ▲장길선(구례군수) ▲공영민(고흥군수) ▲김철우(보성군수) ▲임지락(화순군수) ▲명현관(해남군수) ▲우승희(영암군수) ▲김산(무안군수) ▲이남오(함평군수) ▲장세일(영광군수) ▲김한종(장성군수) ▲이재각(진도군수) 후보가 당선됐다.
특히 민주당 소속 현역 단체장인 윤병태(나주)·조상래(곡성)·공영민(고흥)·김철우(보성)·명현관(해남)·우승희(영암)·김산(무안)·장세일(함평)·김한종(장성) 등 9명의 후보는 수성에 성공하며 시군정을 안정적으로 이어가게 됐다.
민주당의 독주 속에서 조국혁신당과 무소속 후보들의 약진도 돋보였다. 조국혁신당은 격전지였던 장흥군(사순문 후보)과 신안군(김태성 후보) 2곳에서 승기를 꽂으며 기초단체 교두보를 확보했다.
무소속 돌풍도 매서웠다. 광양시장 선거에서 박성현 후보가 당선된 것을 비롯해, 강진군에서는 현직 군수인 강진원 후보가 무소속으로 출마해 살아남으며 재선에 성공했다. 완도군수 선거에서도 무소속 김신 후보가 당선되는 저력을 발휘했다.
한편, 이번 지방선거와 동시에 치러진 임기 2년의 국회의원 재·보궐선거(광주 광산을 1곳)에서는 더불어민주당 임문영 후보가 여의도행 티켓을 거머쥐었다.
