The previous gubernatorial elections for this group of states took place in 2016, except in New Hampshire and Vermont where governors only serve two-year terms, so their previous elections were in 2018. Nine state governors are running for reelection,[a] while Steve Bullock of Montana can not run again due to term limits and Gary Herbert of Utah is retiring. 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.
