The 2010 United States House of Representatives elections in New Jersey were held on November 4, 2010, to elect the 13 U.S. representatives from the state of New Jersey, one from each of the state's 13 congressional districts. The primary election in which candidates were chosen took place on June 8, 2010.

As of 2024, this is the last time the Republicans won the popular vote for the House in New Jersey, even though they did not win a majority of congressional seats. As a result, New Jersey became one of three states in which the party that won the state's popular vote did not win a majority of seats in 2010, the other states being Iowa and North Carolina.
