Offices that changed party control in 2021

Incumbent governorsGlenn Youngkin (R-Va.) andPhil Murphy (D-N.J.) were term-limited and could not seek re-election.

As of 2025, governors of Virginia could not run for consecutive terms, although they could run for another term after spending a term out of office. Governors of New Jersey were limited to two four-year terms, and could run again after a four-year break.

Between thetwo gubernatorial elections which took place in 2025:

• 18 candidates, includingseven Democrats,six Republicans, andfive minor-party or independent candidates, filed to run.
• No incumbents filed for re-election
• Both races featured at least one Democrat and one Republican in the general. New Jersey also had two contested primaries, one for each party. Virginia's primaries were cancelled after only two candidates — one Democrat and one Republican — filed to run.

Ballotpedia identified both gubernatorial elections in 2025 asbattlegrounds. As both incumbent GovernorsPhil Murphy (D-N.J.) andGlenn Youngkin (R-Va.) were term-limited, the seats were open.

One governor's office changed party control in 2021. InVirginia,Glenn Youngkin (R) defeatedTerry McAuliffe (D), changing partisan control of the state's governorship. Youngkin was the first Republican to win election as governor of Virginia sinceBob McDonnell (R) in 2009.

About the office

See also:Governor (state executive office)

In the United States, the titlegovernor refers to the chief executive of each state. The governor is not directly subordinate to the federal authorities but is the political and ceremonial head of the state. The governor may also assume additional roles, such as the commander-in-chief of the National Guard when the role is not federalized. The governor may also have the ability to commute or pardon a criminal sentence.

In all states, the governor is directly elected and, in most cases, has considerable practical powers. Notable exceptions with weak governorships include the office of the governor inTexas, though this may be moderated by thestate legislature and, in some cases, by other elected executive officials. Governors can veto state bills. The specific duties and powers vary widely between states.
