The county government is overseen by a five-member elected Board of Supervisors, who serve four-year terms of office. When San Benito County was formed in 1874, it only had three districts. But after 1883, when the California Legislature established a uniform system that dictated five supervisorial districts, the county was redivided into five areas roughly equal in population.
