2024 Governor Elections (Ricky's Future Elections)

Summary
Most of the seats up for re-election were not competitive, with either Republicans or Democrats easily winning. The one exception was North Carolina - a swing state. Although North Carolina went to Donald Trump in the Presidential Election by five points, Democrats were still able to hold this seat, with Attorney General Josh Stein winning the election by a rather solid margin. As such, there was no change in results.

Delaware
Incumbent Governor John Carney was term limited and was unable to run for re-election. Lieutenant Governor Bethany Hall-Long won the Democratic Primary unopposed whilst Republican John Horan won the Republican primary. In the general election, Hall won by an unexpectedly low margin.

Indiana
Incumbent Governor Eric Holcomb was term limited and unable to run for re-election. In the Republican primary, former Representative Trey Hollingsworth won the Republican primary whilst Democrat Joe Donnelly, an US Ambassador and former US Senator, won the Democratic nomination unopposed. In the general election, Hollingsworth defeated Donnelly by a very narrow margin.

Republican Primary
Originally, US Representative Greg Pence, the brother of former Vice President and Governor Mike Pence, expressed interest in the race and was the early frontrunner, leader in a poll against runner up Trey Hollingsworth by over 13 points. However, Pence declined to run in January, and the race became a 3 way race between State Senator Jim Merritt, Trey Hollingsworth and former Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill. Following Hollingsworth endorsement by President Trump, he became the frontrunner and won the Republican primary. 'Candidates'
