The 2009 Minneapolis Board of Estimate and Taxation election was held on November 3, 2009 to elect the two popularly elected members of the Minneapolis Board of Estimate and Taxation for four-year terms. Incumbent Carol Becker was re-elected in the first round with 52.1% of first choice votes. As no other candidate achieved the threshold to be elected the second member, several rounds of vote transfers were necessary. David Wheeler was elected in the fifth round after the remaining candidates were defeated.

Members were elected citywide via the single transferable vote. Voters had the option of ranking up to three candidates.
