Incumbent Republican Governor Horace Hildreth, was seeking a second term, and faced off against Democrat F. Davis Clark. This election represented the first gubernatorial election in Maine following the end of the Second World War, and saw Hildreth easily win re-election. Since Hildreth failed to carry heavily Democratic Androscoggin County and Clark failed to flip any of the fifteen other counties in the state, this was the last Maine gubernatorial election that saw no counties flip from the previous election until the 2022 gubernatorial election, which saw no counties flip from the 2018 election.
