Incumbent Federalist Governor Christopher Gore was defeated by Democratic-Republican nominee Elbridge Gerry. Republicans cast Gore as an ostentatious British-loving Tory who wanted to restore the monarchy (his parents were Loyalists during the Revolution), and Gerry as a patriotic American, while Federalists described Gerry as a "French partizan" and Gore as an honest man devoted to ridding the government of foreign influence.Billias, p. 313 A temporary lessening in the threat of war with Britain aided Gerry.Buel, pp. 104–07 General election Candidates Elbridge Gerry, Democratic-Republican, former U.S. Representative Christopher Gore, Federalist, incumbent Governor Results 1810 Massachusetts gubernatorial electionhttps://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=224439 MA Governor, 1810 Our Campaigns 11 November 2021Gubernatorial Elections, 1787-1997 Washington, D.C.
