United States gubernatorial elections were held on 2 November 1937, in two states. Virginia holds its gubernatorial elections in odd numbered years, every 4 years, following the United States presidential election year. New Jersey at this time held gubernatorial elections every 3 years, which it would abandon in 1949. This marks the Democratic Party's largest gubernatorial extent in history and the largest for any party.
