Elections in California |

The November 2010 San Francisco general elections was held on November 2, 2010, in San Francisco, California. The elections included five seats to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, a runoff election for a seat on the San Francisco County Superior Court, assessor-recorder, public defender, and fifteen San Francisco ballot measures.
As no candidate had more than 50% of the votes in the June 2010 election, a runoff election was held between the two highest vote-getting candidates.
