The 2009 Northampton County Executive election was held on November 3, 2009. Incumbent Democratic County Executive John Stoffa ran for re-election to a second term. He was challenged in the Democratic primary by County Council President Ann McHale, and won renomination with 57 percent of the vote. Hoffa was originally set to face Republican nominee J. C. Kelleher, a former reporter, in the general election, but Kelleher withdrew from the race in June and the county Republican Party did not field a replacement. Stoffa ended up winning re-election in the general election unopposed.
