U.S. municipal elections, 2018

Alameda County, California, held primary elections for county board of supervisors, county board of education, flood control board of directors, county superintendent of schools, county assessor, county auditor-controller/clerk recorder, district attorney, county sheriff/coroner, county treasurer-tax collector, superior court judges, and Union Sanitary District on June 5, 2018.

Whoever received the most votes for the county board of education and the flood control board of directors won the seat outright in the primary. A majority of the other races were also decided in the primary. Because no candidates received a majority of votes in the primary for county assessor, the top two vote-getters advanced to a general election that was held on November 6, 2018. Seats on the Peralta Community College District, Ohlone Community College District, Alameda County Water District, the East Bay Regional Park District, the East Bay Municipal Utility District, and the Washington Township Healthcare District were also scheduled to be on the ballot on November 6, 2018.[1][2][3]
