Career

During the 1960 presidential election, he supported U.S. Senator John F. Kennedy and later served as a staff assistant for state Senator Thomas Kuchel.{{Cite news |url=https://timesofsandiego.com/politics/2018/12/18/mike-schaefer-sworn-in-as-oldest-elected-official-in-state/ |title=Mike Schaefer Sworn in As Oldest Elected Official in State |date=December 28, 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200320044510/https://timesofsandiego.com/politics/2018/12/18/mike-schaefer-sworn-in-as-oldest-elected-official-in-state/ |archive-date=March 20, 2020}} He also worked as an analyst for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
In 1965, Schaefer was elected to the San Diego City Council and served until 1971. In 1968, he received the Republican nomination in California's 37th House district, but was defeated by incumbent Representative Lionel Van Deerlin. In 1971, he ran for mayor in the open primary, but received less than one percent of the vote. In 1974, he ran for the Republican nomination for Secretary of State in Nevada, but was defeated by Stanley W. Paher.
In the 1980s, he moved to Maryland where he befriended William Donald Schaefer, who served as the mayor of Baltimore and Governor of Maryland, and Mike Schaefer believed that sharing a last name with him would help him politically and following Schaefer's death in 2011 Mike filed a $28,000 claim to William's estate.{{Cite news |url=https://www.baltimoresun.com/bal-william-donald-schaefer-mike-schaefer-wants-to-be-in-the-former-mayors-will-20110622-story.html |title=Mike Schaefer, no relation to William Donald, makes claim to estate |date=June 23, 2011 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200320033919/https://www.baltimoresun.com/bal-william-donald-schaefer-mike-schaefer-wants-to-be-in-the-former-mayors-will-20110622-story.html |archive-date=March 20, 2020}} In 1986, he ran for the Republican nomination for Maryland's Senate election, but was defeated by Linda Chavez.
From the 1990s to the 2010s, he ran for local offices in Los Angeles and San Francisco, Secretary of State of California, state legislative seats in Arizona, Nevada, and Maryland, and mayor in Baltimore and Palm Springs. In 2014, he was removed from the Nevada state controller primary and the decision was upheld by the Nevada Supreme Court as he had failed to meet the residency requirements.{{Cite news |url=https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/apr/16/nevada-supreme-court-removes-schaefer-from-ballot/ |title=Nevada Supreme Court removes Schaefer from ballot |date=April 16, 2014 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200322130510/https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/apr/16/nevada-supreme-court-removes-schaefer-from-ballot/ |archive-date=March 22, 2020}}
In 2018, he initially sought to run for California's 54th State Assembly district, but later dropped out as he would rather remain in San Diego and ran in the Board of Equalization's 4th district. He ran as a member of the Democratic Party and placed second in the top-two primary behind Republican state senator Joel Anderson. On November 6, 2018, Schaefer unexpectedly defeated Anderson by a narrow margin; Anderson had spent over $300,000 to Schaefer's $25,000. This was attributed to the Democratic wave and Anderson being reprimanded for his comments to a female lobbyist.{{Cite news |url=https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/columnists/michael-smolens/sd-me-smolens-mike-schaefer-20181114-story.html |title=Mike Schaefer makes political comeback with baggage and jokes |date=November 16, 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200320035504/https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/columnists/michael-smolens/sd-me-smolens-mike-schaefer-20181114-story.html |archive-date=March 20, 2020}} Schaefer was re-elected to the Board in 2022, defeating fellow Democrat David Dodson.
Schaefer was briefly a Democratic candidate for California's 47th congressional district in the 2024 election, but later switched to the race for the U.S. Senate in Nevada.{{Cite web| title=Schaefer for US senate NV2024 | url=https://docquery.fec.gov/pdf/884/202402060300461884/202402060300461884.pdf | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240207145833/https://docquery.fec.gov/pdf/884/202402060300461884/202402060300461884.pdf | archive-date=2024-02-07}} He lost the primary election to the incumbent Senator Jacky Rosen.{{Cite web |last=Hubbard |first=Kaia |date=2024-06-11 |title=Sam Brown, Jacky Rosen win Nevada Senate primaries to set up November matchup - CBS News |url=https://www.cbsnews.com/news/nevada-senate-primary-republicans-sam-brown-jacky-rosen/ |access-date=2024-07-10 |website=CBS News |language=en-US}}

Schaefer bought properties in multiple states, including the Schaefer Hotel which he bought for $450,000. He was successfully sued by his tenants in Los Angeles for the low quality of his housing and they were awarded $1.83 million.{{Cite news |url=https://www.sandiegoreader.com/news/2018/may/03/ticker-mike-schaefer-80-running-office-again/# |title=Mike Schaefer, 80, running for office again |date=May 3, 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20200320034135/https://www.sandiegoreader.com/news/2018/may/03/ticker-mike-schaefer-80-running-office-again/%23 |archive-date=March 20, 2020 |access-date=March 20, 2020 }}
In 1993, Schaefer was convicted of misdemeanor spousal abuse and was disbarred by the Nevada Supreme Court in 2001. In 2015, he was ordered to pay $328 to his live-in landlord.{{Cite news |url=https://www.voiceofsandiego.org/topics/politics/the-blue-wave-brought-with-it-a-candidate-dems-might-prefer-to-leave-adrift/ |title=The Blue Wave Brought With it a Candidate Dems Might Prefer to Leave Adrift |date=November 15, 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200320040032/https://www.voiceofsandiego.org/topics/politics/the-blue-wave-brought-with-it-a-candidate-dems-might-prefer-to-leave-adrift/ |archive-date=March 20, 2020}}
In 2013, comedian Brad Garrett filed a restraining order against Schaefer, stating in his application: "As a celebrity, I am very concerned about stalkers who seek notoriety by associating themselves with me." Under the order, Schaefer is also banned from the MGM Grand Las Vegas.{{Cite web|date=2013-05-30|title=Stalker's message to Garrett: No comp, no peace|url=https://www.reviewjournal.com/news/news-columns/jane-ann-morrison/stalkers-message-to-garrett-no-comp-no-peace/|access-date=2020-12-29|website=Las Vegas Review-Journal|language=en-US}}
In 2025, tech entrepreneur Palmer Luckey revealed that Schaefer had sent him numerous angry letters and had stated that he would not treat Luckey fairly on tax matters because Luckey had not invited him to a political fundraiser hosted in 2024. The chief counsel and executive director of the Board of Equalization said they would look into the matter. Schaefer also said he would exclude himself from participating in any matters related to Luckey or his interests, citing a threat of a lawsuit from Luckey, which Luckey denies making.{{cite web|url=https://news.bloombergtax.com/california-brief/tech-1|title=Tech Founder, California Tax Official Spar Over Fundraiser Mixup|last=Mahoney|first=Laura|date=February 25, 2025|access-date=April 15, 2025|website=Bloomberg Tax}}
