The 2002 Massachusetts gubernatorial election was held on November 5, 2002. Incumbent Republican acting governor Jane Swift chose not to seek a full term in office. Republican businessman Mitt Romney defeated Democratic Treasurer Shannon O'Brien.
This would be the last time Mitt Romney won this state, as in 2012, he lost the state to Barack Obama by a large margin.
