2026 Pennsylvania Governor Election
Pennsylvania’s 2026 gubernatorial race is the contest for governor of a large swing state with major stakes for state budgeting, energy policy, transit funding, abortion rights, and the commonwealth’s response to the Trump administration. Democratic incumbent Josh Shapiro is seeking a second term against Republican state Treasurer Stacy Garrity, with the race also serving as an early test of each party’s 2026 message in a nationally watched battleground.
