The 2022 Massachusetts gubernatorial election will take place on November 8, 2022, to elect the governor of Massachusetts. As Massachusetts does not have gubernatorial term limits, incumbent Republican governor Charlie Baker is eligible to run for re-election. However, in a joint press statement with Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito released on December 1, 2021, Baker announced he would not seek a third term while Polito announced she also would not seek re-election nor would she run to succeed him.[1][2]
