Probably the most high profile gubernatorial election of the cycle, this race saw three Democratic candidates (Senator [[Roland Scott]], Lieutenant Governor [[James Stewart]] and Congresswoman [[Caroline Westman]]) running in a primary to face off against Governor [[Robert Hudson]], only for Hudson to step down rather than face re-election. Hudson had been elected Governor in 2008 and 2010 as a Democrat, leaving the party in 2012 after failing to win the [[United States presidential election, 2012|Democratic Presidential nomination]]. Originally governing as an independent, he later aligned himself with the [[Republican Party]], angering Democrats and contributing to the size of the Democratic primary.

Stewart was the eventual Democratic nominee, winning the primary after going negative against front runner Scott. Senator [[Joseph Salazar-Portela]] was the initial Republican candidate, but withdrew from the race and was replaced by his running mate [[Chris Waugh]]. Stewart went on to decisively defeat Waugh 63.4% to 35.1%.
