2026 New York gubernatorial election

The 2026 New York gubernatorial election is scheduled to take place on November 3, 2026. Incumbent Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul took office on August 24, 2021, upon the resignation of Andrew Cuomo. Hochul was elected to a full term in 2022 with 53.1% of the vote in the closest New York gubernatorial election since 1994. Hochul announced her intention to run for re-election in July 2024. Republicans have not won a statewide election in New York since George Pataki was re-elected Governor in 2002.
