PurposeImran Sharief, a physician and small business owner, is challenging for Anaheim mayor in 2026 on public safety, economic development, and government accountability.

Security
Sharief pledges to make neighborhood safety a top priority, backing law enforcement and expanding prevention programs across the city rather than concentrating resources in select areas.

Economy
On the economy, he wants Anaheim to attract new investment and support small businesses so that enterprises can "start, grow, and stay," while also expanding attainable housing options to ease cost pressures on working families.

Infrastructure
Sharief also emphasizes routine city upkeep, promising cleaner streets, better-maintained parks, and more reliable infrastructure and services delivered evenly across all of Anaheim's neighborhoods.

His campaign site does not detail specific positions on homelessness, education, or immigration policy.
