Edith Powell Mayomi (born 1963) is a substitute teacher and former Jefferson State Community College grant coordinator and lab instructor.

Mayomi grew up in Birmingham and graduated from Hayes High School. She completed a bachelor's degree from Alabama State University in 1987 and a master's degree in education at UAB in 1999. After a fifteen year career at Jefferson State her position was eliminated. In 2006 she declared personal bankruptcy to avoid losing her home.

Mayomi qualified in the 2009 special election to fill the vacancy left by Larry Langford. If elected, she hopes to improve educational opportunities, access to health care, and support for the unemployed and homeless in the city.
