In Texas, governor elections occur every four years in November. The next statewide governor race is scheduled for November 3, 2026. If you’re asking about eligibility, filing, or primary dates, those details follow Texas election law and party processes and can shift based on the election cycle. For the most precise dates (filing deadlines, primary dates, and any runoff schedules), check the Texas Secretary of State’s official election calendar and your local county elections office.
