- Source: 2010 United States House of Representatives elections in Oregon
The 2010 United States House of Representatives elections in Oregon were held on November 2, 2010, to determine who would represent the state of Oregon in the United States House of Representatives. Oregon has five seats in the House, apportioned according to the 2000 United States census. All five incumbents, four Democrats and one Republican, were re-elected to another term. Representatives were elected for two-year terms to serve in the 112th Congress from January 3, 2011, until January 3, 2013; however, re-elected Congressman David Wu resigned partway through his term on August 3, 2011, and a special election was held to fill the rest of his unexpired term.
A primary election for Democrats and Republicans was held on May 18. Other parties have other procedures for nominating candidates.

No documentation existed for the payment, which is a possible violation of Oregon election laws.
