General elections were held in Anguilla on 15 February 2010.[1] Seven seats in the House of Assembly were contested in the election.[1]
The incumbent Chief Minister of Anguilla Osbourne Fleming chose to retire and not stand for election.[2] Fleming was a member of the Anguilla National Alliance, which is part of the ruling Anguilla United Front (AUF), a conservative coalition that won four of the seven seats in the Assembly in the 2005 elections.
The incumbent AUF was defeated, and former Chief Minister Hubert Hughes was sworn in to succeed Fleming as chief minister.
