Politics of Yueyang
# Politics of Yueyang

The Politics of Yueyang in Hunan province in the People's Republic of China is structured in a dual party-government system like all other governing institutions in mainland China.

The Mayor of Yueyang is the highest-ranking official in the People's Government of Yueyang or Yueyang Municipal Government. However, in the city's dual party-government governing system, the Mayor has less power than the Communist Party of Yueyang Municipal Committee Secretary, colloquially termed the "CPC Party Chief of Yueyang" or "Communist Party Secretary of Yueyang".

## History
