The 2022 Orange County Board of Supervisors elections will be held on June 7 and November 8, 2022. Three of the five seats of the Orange County, California Board of Supervisors are up for election. This was the first set of elections held after the 2020 redistricting cycle. County elections in California are officially nonpartisan. A two-round system was used for the election, starting with the first round in June. Runoffs will be held in all three districts, as no candidate managed to reach the 50% + 1 threshold.

Currently, the Republican Party holds three seats on the board, while the Democratic Party holds two. One Republican-held district, the 5th, and two Democratic-held districts, the 2nd and 4th, are up for election in 2022. In the 2nd and 4th districts, both candidates who advanced from the jungle primary were Democrats, guaranteeing that the Democratic Party will hold those seats. In the 5th district, one Republican and one Democrat advanced, meaning that control of the entire board rests on the outcome of the general election in that district. If Democrats flip the 5th district, they will take control of the board for the first time in over 40 years.[1]

Key issues in the 2022 election included the COVID-19 pandemic, especially the board's role in enforcing mask and vaccine mandates, and how to priprotize spending between law enforcement and other public services.[1]
