Elections were held on the islands of St. Thomas and St. John in the United States Virgin Islands on November 5, 1940, to elect 7 members of the Municipal Council. The Progressive Guide won in a landslide, electing 6 of the 7 members. The People's Civic League only won one seat, St. John, as the Progressive Guide did not contest it. Elections were also held in St. Croix to elect 9 members to their own Municipal Council.
