Strategically Blue: the most competitive 2022 governor races

embed errored


In the face of the recent attacks on our democracy (January 6) and liberty (loss of Roe vs. Wade), I spent today, the Fourth of July, taking a close look at what it will take to protect our country in the election ahead. I’d like to share what I found.


The four most competitive gubernatorial races are:

AZ Katie Hobbes

KS Laura Kelly

NV Steve Sisolak

WI Tony Evers


The next five are:

OR Tina Kotek

PA Josh Shapiro

ME Janet Mills

NM Michelle Lujan Grisham

GA Stacey Abrams


About half of these states (AZ, KS, WI, GA, and PA) also have critical Senate races, so supporting the Democratic candidates for governor may help there as well.


You can find an analysis of all these races and others, including data and sources, at strategicallyblue.com.
