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 will have taken place in 2018, as the governors of both states serve two-year terms. All state governors will be eligible for re-election, save 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.

One-term incumbent Governor Eric Holcomb is eligible for re-election in 2020.

One-term incumbent Governor Eric Greitens is eligible for re-election in 2020.

One-term incumbent Governor Doug Burgum is eligible for re-election in 2020.

One-term incumbent Governor Jim Justice is eligible for re-election in 2020. Justice was elected as a Democrat, but later switched to the Republican Party.

Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, retired Olympic gymnast Mary Lou Retton, and Secretary of State Mac Warner were mentioned as potential general election challengers, prior to Justice's decision to join the Republican Party.

Two-term incumbent Governor Gary Herbert is eligible for re-election in 2020, as Utah does not have gubernatorial term limits. However, he announced shortly after being re-elected in 2016 that he will not run for a third full term.
