The1826 Massachusetts gubernatorial election was held on April 3.
GovernorLevi Lincoln Jr., an Adams Republican, was re-elected to a second term over fractured opposition from the state's Federalists. This was the last party in which candidates stood as Federalists, as the party had been on the verge of collapse for years. The state soon coalesced into a dominant Adams Republican faction with a minority Jacksonian Republican group.
