Jean-Michel Aulas, ancien patron de l'Olympique lyonnais, a perdu de justesse l'élection municipale de Lyon le 22 mars 2026 face au maire écologiste sortant, Grégory Doucet. Aulas, candidat du centre et de la droite, a obtenu 49,33% des voix contre 50,67% pour Doucet. Malgré une campagne initialement favorable, Aulas a été handicapé par une campagne atone et des polémiques. Il conteste les résultats et prévoit de déposer un recours auprès de la préfecture, invoquant des irrégularités pendant le scrutin. Aulas avait été poussé vers la sortie de l'OL trois ans auparavant.
