The 2008 California State Assembly elections were held on November 4, 2008. Voters in all 80 of California's State Assembly districts voted for their representative. Other elections were also held on November 4. Only five seats changed parties: one to the Republican Party and four to the Democratic Party, which maintained a majority with 51 seats.

Of the 80 State Assembly districts, only about nine were considered truly competitive by political analysts.{{cite web |first=David |last=Dayen |url=http://calitics.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=6668 |title=The Calitics Target Book - The Drive For 2/3 |publisher=Calitics |date=2008-08-14 |access-date=2009-02-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081127131613/http://calitics.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=6668 |archive-date=2008-11-27 |url-status=dead }}
