The election in Manchester featured 14 of the 15 seats on the board up for general election on November 3, 2015. The last seat, held by Manchester Mayor Ted Gatsas at the time of the election, was elected separately on the ballot. A primary election was held on September 15, 2015, to narrow down the number of candidates to two per seat in each race for the general election. Wards 1, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 12 held primary elections.
In the Ward 4 race, candidates Mark Flanders and Leslie Want competed for the seat. Want defeated Flanders in the general election. Fellow challenger Tim DiVenuti lost in the primary election.
