How does Massachusetts's primary work?
Massachusetts holds semi-closed party primaries on September 1, 2026.

The highest vote-getter wins each nomination outright, with no runoff, and nominees advance to the November 3 general election.
Why is the 2026 Massachusetts Governor race important?
Massachusetts elects its governor in 2026, with Democrat Maura Healey seeking a second term. The race sets the direction of state government in a strongly Democratic state where Republicans have won the corner office in recent decades, and a contested Republican primary on September 1 will decide who challenges her in November.
