Bầu cử thống đốc Rhode Island năm 2010

The 2010 Rhode Island gubernatorial election was held in the US state on November 2, 2010. It was preceded by the primary election on September 14, 2010. Incumbent Republican governor Donald Carcieri was term-limited in 2010. The non-partisan Cook Political Report, The New York Times, and CQ Politics rated the gubernatorial election as a toss-up.

With 90 percent of the districts reporting on election night, independent Lincoln Chafee was declared the winner, with 36.1 percent of the vote. As of 2025, this was the last time Newport County voted for the Republican candidate in a statewide election. Chafee had served Rhode Island in the U.S. Senate as a Republican from 1999 to 2007; he later joined the Democratic Party in 2013.
