The 2002 Portland City Commission elections were held on May 21, 2002, and November 5, 2002, to elect two positions on the Portland, Oregon City Council, with a special election to elect an additional position held on September 17, 2002 and November 5, 2002.[1]
Incumbents Erik Sten and Dan Saltzman both won re-election to positions 2 and three respectively. Both won outright by receiving over 50% of the vote in the primary, thereby avoiding a runoff. State Representative Randy Leonard won a general special election for position 4 outright with over 50% of the vote due to the resignation of Charlie Hales, who later became Mayor.
