Elections in California |
---|
The 1894 California gubernatorial election was held on November 6, 1894, to elect the governor of California. Democratic former Congressman James Budd narrowly defeated Republican lawyer Morris M. Estee. Estee had previously run for governor in 1882, losing the prior election in a landslide. This was the seventh time in the previous eight gubernatorial elections that the incumbent party was ousted from the governorship.
This was the last election until 1938 in which a Democrat was elected Governor of California.
