We report a fluid system which exhibits chaotic dynamics under creeping flow conditions. A droplet in a uniform dc electric field deforms into an ellipsoid that can undergo irregular rotational motions. The nonlinear drop electrohydrodynamics is explained by a theoretical model which includes anisotropy in the polarization relaxation due to drop asphericity and charge convection due to rotational drop flow.
