The primary election was held on June 6, 2006. Four of the eight seats of the San Diego City Council were contested. All four incumbent council members  stood for reelection.Municipal elections in California are officially non-partisan, although most candidates do identify a party preference. A two-round system was used for the election, starting with a primary in June followed by a runoff in November between the top-two candidates if no candidate received a majority of the votes in the first round. Since each incumbent was reelected with a majority in the June primary, there were no city council runoffs in the November general election.Table of ContentsCampaign[edit]Results[edit]District 2[edit]District 4[edit]District 6[edit]District 8[edit]Council President[edit]References[edit]Campaign[edit]  Council Districts used for the 2006 electionThe 2006 election used the eight district boundaries created by the 2000 Redistricting Commission.
