General Hospital Spoilers: Will Ezra Oust Laura in the Mayoral Election?

General Hospital spoilers reveal Laura Collins (Genie Francis), Port Charles’ steadfast mayor, faces a fierce challenge as Councilman Ezra Boyle (Daniel Cosgrove) ramps up his campaign to unseat her in the upcoming mayoral election.

Their ongoing clashes — marked by Ezra’s relentless attempts to tarnish her reputation — have escalated tensions, with Ezra painting Laura as “soft on crime” due to her ties to Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and obstructing his and Drew Quartermaine’s (Cameron Mathison) esplanade project on Sonny’s piers.

As Ezra’s cutthroat tactics gain traction, could Laura’s popularity falter, handing him the victory? If Ezra and Drew’s dubious leadership takes hold, what might Port Charles’ future look like under their influence?

Ezra’s Smear Campaign Intensifies

Ezra’s attacks on Laura have been calculated and public, starting with his March 2025 debut when he questioned her absence from a press conference and sowed doubts about her loyalty to Sonny.

He has since accused her of hindering the esplanade, a pet project with Drew, and tried to undermine her by prompting former Deputy Mayor Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) to resign during a media event.

His boldest move — attempting to demolish the Quartermaine crypt with a court order — was thwarted by Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) and Diane Miller (Carolyn Hennesy), but it further painted Laura as out of touch.

Will Ezra’s relentless smears chip away at Laura’s support, or will her deep-rooted history with the town hold firm?

Gossip Says Laura’s Popularity is at Risk

Laura’s tenure as mayor — bolstered by her compassionate leadership and decades in Port Charles — has weathered past challenges, like a 2022 recall vote tied to Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober).

But Ezra’s alliance with Drew, who has turned ruthless, poses a new threat. Their manipulative tactics — framing Laura as complicit with Sonny’s “coffee import” business — could sway voters.

If Laura’s popularity dips, Ezra’s charm and promises of progress might tip the scales. Can she counter his narrative, or will her legacy falter under his onslaught?

A Dark Future Under Ezra and Drew?

If Ezra wins, backed by Drew’s political clout, Port Chuck could face a troubling future. Their esplanade push, tied to shady dealings with figures like Jenz Sidwell (Carlo Rota), hints at self-serving agendas, potentially prioritizing profit over residents’ needs.

Ezra’s sleazy reputation and Drew’s recent villainy — blackmailing Dr. Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) and deceiving Willow Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen) — suggest a leadership marked by corruption and division. With Sonny’s influence still strong, and the Quartermaines — like Ned Quartermaine (Wally Kurth) — likely opposing them, the town could fracture.

Is it possible that Ezra will oust Laura, or will her resilience save Port Charles from their grip? Stay tuned for more GH news and spoilers to find out, and share with us who you would vote for on Election Day in Port Charles.
