The CPR Governor Race Ratings assess the competitiveness of all gubernatorial elections in 2023 and 2024. Competitiveness is determined by several factors, including the state's political makeup, the candidates' strengths and weaknesses, the political environment in the state and nationally, and interviews with candidates and campaign professionals. When sourcing the CPR Race Ratings, please refer to our terms of use. To inquire about API access and licensing, please submit a request.
