United States gubernatorial elections will be held on November 3, 2020, in 11 states and two territories. In addition, special elections may take place (depending on state law) if other gubernatorial seats are vacated. The last regular gubernatorial elections for nine of the eleven states took place in 2016. The last gubernatorial elections for New Hampshire and Vermont took place in 2018, as the governors of both states serve two-year terms. All state governors will be eligible for reelection [a] except for Steve Bullock of Montana, although other governors may choose to retire. The 2020 gubernatorial elections will take place concurrently with several other federal, state, and local elections, including the presidential election, senate elections, and house elections.

Predictions

Montana is the most competitive race in this cycle and is rated a tossup by all major pundits. Montana's popular Democratic governor, Steve Bullock, is term-limited, but his lieutenant governor, Mike Cooney, a longtime local politician, is the Democratic nominee. The Republican nominee is Montana at-large congressman Greg Gianforte, who is a controversial figure because he was arrested for body slamming a reporter the day of a 2017 special election and he’s an out of state businessman.[1] North Carolina is the next most competitive race, as it is a Republican-leaning state with a Democratic governor, Roy Cooper, meaning that Cooper faces a tough reelection, though most forecasters give the race a Democratic lean as Cooper has high approval ratings.

Vermont and New Hampshire are both races that could become competitive seeing as they are Democratic states with Republican governors, however, Republican incumbents Phill Scott and Chris Sununu, both centrists, are ranked among the most popular governors in the United States and there are no formidable Democratic challengers. In Missouri, Republican incumbent Mike Parson assumed office after the resignation of Eric Greitens, and his lack of name recognition and unpopularity could make his race against state auditor Nicole Galloway, Missouri’s only Democratic statewide office holder, competitive, though most forecasters still rate the race as likely Republican due to Missouri’s heavy Republican lean. West Virginia’s gubernatorial race was seen as safe for Republicans because the state heavily leans Republican, but recent forecasts now rate it as likely Republican due to corruption allegations against incumbent Jim Justice[2][3][4] that have lead to rising unpopularity and a record breaking fundraising operation by his Democratic opponent, Stephen Smith.[5]

The gubernatorial races in Delaware and Washington are seen as safe for Democrats, while Indiana, North Dakota, and Utah are seen as safe for Republicans.

Several sites and individuals publish predictions of competitive seats. These predictions look at factors such as the strength of the incumbent (if the incumbent is running for re-election), the strength of the candidates, and the partisan leanings of the state (reflected in part by the state's Cook Partisan Voting Index rating). The predictions assign ratings to each seat, with the rating indicating the predicted advantage that a party has in winning that seat.

Most election predictors use:

  • "tossup": no advantage
  • "tilt" (used by some predictors): advantage that is not quite as strong as "lean"
  • "lean": slight advantage
  • "likely" or "favored": significant, but surmountable, advantage
  • "safe" or "solid": near-certain chance of victory
