The 1930 New York gubernatorial election was held on November 4, 1930, to elect the Governor of New York. Incumbent Democratic Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt was re-elected to a second term in office in a landslide over the U.S Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Charles H. Tuttle (Who would resign from his position to run in this election).
This would be Roosevelt's final term as governor, as he would be elevated to the presidency after winning in a landslide victory for president in 1932 as the Democratic nominee against incumbent Republican president Herbert Hoover.
As of 2026, this is the last gubernatorial election where Hamilton County voted for the Democratic candidate.
