The 2002 Portland City Commission elections were held on May 21, 2002, and November 5, 2002, to elect three positions on the Portland, Oregon City Council.[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.
