United States gubernatorial elections (elections for governor) were held on November 7, 2017, in two states: Virginia and New Jersey. These elections formed part of the 2017 United States elections. The last regular gubernatorial elections for these two states were in 2013. Both incumbents were term-limited, so both seats were open. Democrats held the governorship in Virginia and picked up the governorship of New Jersey.
For the first time since 2008, Democrats won the total popular vote of the year's gubernatorial elections.
