The 2024 San Francisco District Attorney election was held on November 5, 2024, concurrent with the election for San Francisco mayor and the 2024 statewide general elections.[1]

Incumbent District Attorney Brooke Jenkins was originally appointed to the position in 2022 by mayor London Breed after the successful recall of her predecessor Chesa Boudin. That year, Jenkins was elected to serve out the remaining two years of Boudin's term with 53.7% of the vote. Jenkins successfully ran for re-election to a full term in office.[2]
