2023 United States gubernatorial elections (YoungLibertarian20)

United States gubernatorial elections will be held on November 7, 2023, in the states of Kentucky, Louisiana, and Mississippi. In addition, special elections may take place (depending on state law) if other gubernatorial seats are vacated. These elections form part of the 2023 United States elections. The last regular gubernatorial elections for all three states were in 2019.

Republicans picked up two governorships previously held by Democrats in Kentucky and Louisiana. Andy Beshear lost his bid for a second term and John Bel Edwards was term-limited, respectively. Both states were previously won by Republican Donald Trump in 2024 but the races nonetheless were seen as competitive. Tate Reeves was re-elected in Mississippi for a second term.
