The 2010 Budapest mayoral election was held on 3 October 2010 to elect the Mayor of Budapest (főpolgármester). On the same day, local elections were held throughout Hungary, including the districts of Budapest. The election was run using a First-past-the-post voting system. The winner of this election served for 4 years.

The election was won by the governing parties' candidate, István Tarlós.

Campaign

Five-term incumbent Gábor Demszky did not run,[1] due to low approval and the collapse of his party SZDSZ.
