The 2022 California Superintendent of Public Instruction election was held on June 7, 2022 to elect the Superintendent of Public Instruction of California. Unlike most other elections in the state, the office is not elected under the state's nonpartisan blanket primary system. Instead, the officially nonpartisan position is elected via a general election, with a runoff scheduled for November 8, 2022 as no candidate received a majority of the vote.
Incumbent Superintendent Tony Thurmond, who was endorsed by the California Democratic Party, easily won re-election to a second term, defeating Lance Christensen, who was endorsed by the California Republican Party, by 26 points. He was first elected in 2018 with 50.9% of the vote, narrowly defeating Marshall Tuck in a runoff election.[1]
