The 1898 California gubernatorial election was held on November 8, 1898, to elect the governor of California. Republican lawyer Henry Gage defeated Democratic congressman James G. Maguire. For the eighth time in nine elections, the incumbent party failed to retain the governorship. However, that string of flips ended with this election as Republicans won the next nine consecutive gubernatorial elections in California.[a]
