The2022 Oregon gubernatorial election took place on November 8, 2022, to elect thegovernor of Oregon . IncumbentKate Brown took office when fellow Democrat John Kitzhaber resigned on February 18, 2015. She won the subsequent2016 special election[ 1] and a full term in2018 .[ 2] Due to term limits, she was unable to run again in 2022.[ 3]
The Oregonian anticipated the election to have "the first competitive Democratic primary in more than a decade and potentially the closest such race since 2002."[ 4] Willamette Week anticipated a "wide open field of Democrats", citing the lack of an incumbent.[ 5] Almost 20Republican Party candidates ran for the office, including two previous nominees for governor in1998 and2016 ,[ 6] [ 7] as well as 15 Democrats and some non-affiliates/third-party members.[ 8] This was the state's first gubernatorial election since 2002 in which there was no current or former governor on the ballot.
In the May 17 primary elections, formerOregon House SpeakerTina Kotek was declared the winner of the Democratic primary half an hour after the ballot deadline.[ 9] The next day, former House Minority LeaderChristine Drazan was determined to have won the Republican primary.[ 10] Notably, the general election featured three prominent female candidates, including former state senatorBetsy Johnson , who was a moderate Democrat, running as anindependent .
Oregon was considered a possible Republican pickup, as Kate Brown had the lowest approval rating of any governor in the United States at the time and Johnson could havesiphoned votes from Kotek .[ 11] [ 12] [ 13] Nonetheless, Kotek narrowly won the election, becoming Oregon's 7th consecutive Democratic governor. Notably, none of Oregon's counties flipped parties from the 2018 or 2016 gubernatorial elections.[ 14] Kotek became one of the first lesbian governors in the United States, along withMaura Healey , who waselected Governor of Massachusetts the same day.[ 15]
