The 1933 Virginia gubernatorial election was held on November 7, 1933, to elect the governor of Virginia.
Background
The 1900s had seen Virginia, like all former Confederate States, almost completely disenfranchise its black and poor white populations through the use of a cumulative poll tax and literacy tests.Kousser J. Morgan The Shaping of Southern Politics: Suffrage Restriction and the Establishment of the One-Party South, 1880-1910 1974 Yale University Press 178–181 0-300-01696-4 So severe was the disenfranchising effect of the new 1902 Constitution that it has been calculated that a third of those who voted were state employees and officeholders.
This limited electorate made post-disenfranchisement Virginian politics controlled by a political machine based in Southside Virginia and led by Thomas Staples Martin until his death in 1919. Progressive "antiorganization" factions were rendered impotent by the inability of almost all their potential electorate to vote.Key Valdimer Orlando Southern Politics in State and Nation 1949 20–25 Unlike the Deep South, historical fusion with the "Readjuster" Democrats,Heersink Boris Jenkins Jeffrey A. Republican Party Politics and the American South, 1865-1968 March 19, 2020 217–221 Cambridge University Press 978-1107158436 defection of substantial proportions of the Northeast-aligned white electorate of the Shenandoah Valley and Southwest Virginia over free silver,August 1938 Moger Allen The Rift in Virginia Democracy in 1896 The Journal of Southern History 4 3 295–317 10.2307/2191291 2191291 and an early move towards a "lily white" Jim Crow party meant Republicans retained a small but permanent number of legislative seats and local offices in the western part of the state,Kevin Phillips (political commentator) Phillips Kevin P. The Emerging Republican Majority 193, 219 1969 Arlington House 0870000586 although in many areas – like in Tennessee during the same era – the parties avoided competition by an agreed division over local offices.
Following the final challenge to hard lily-white control of the state GOP, the small number of black voters in the state were excluded from turning to the rival Democrats by a 1924 party ruling that only qualified whites could vote in the primary.Northeastern University Press We Return Fighting: The Civil Rights Movement in the Jazz Age Mark Robert Schneider 9781555534905 279 2002 This produced a series of court cases that would see Virginia's white primary permanently invalidated in 1930 without a Supreme Court challenge.Bliley v.

Establishment of the Byrd machine
Whilst the state's white primary was challenged in federal court, Harry Flood Byrd, first elected Democratic central committee chairman in 1922,Encyclopedia Virginia Byrd Organization https://encyclopediavirginia.org/entries/byrd-organization/ Brent Tarter Virginia Humanities would be elected Governor in 1925 and implement significant reforms, most importantly a "short ballot" which reduced the number of elected officials to three.These were Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Attorney General. Byrd's coattails would allow John Garland Pollard to be elected Governor despite the divisions caused by opposition to Al Smith in the 1928 presidential election.Virginia Back in the Fold: The Gubernatorial Campaign and Election of 1929 Alvin L. Hall The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography 73 3 July 1965 280-302 Virginia Historical Society Pollard's win confirmed Byrd's supremacy within Virginia politics,26, 40-41 https://digitalcommons.longwood.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1286&&context=etd&&sei-redir=1&referer=https%253A%252F%252Fscholar.google.com%252Fscholar%253Fhl%253Den%2526as_sdt%253D0%25252C5%2526as_vis%253D1%2526q%253DByrd%252BOrganization%252Bpollard%252B1929%2526btnG%253D#search=%22Byrd%20Organization%20pollard%201929%22 Harry Flood Byrd: Conservative Leader of Virginia November 1996 Honors Stephanie Barker Longwood University although he had a reputation for independence and was not closely identified with Byrd and his organization.Depression and New Deal in Virginia: The Enduring Dominion 3 Ronald L.

As Byrd would, except for the "Hundred Days" at the beginning of FDR's first presidential term, always cling to his belief in limited government or "pay-as-you-go", he would support as next Governor George C. Peery,Honors Barker Harry Flood Byrd November 1996 18, 59 whom he had previously helped "redeem" the "Fighting Ninth" congressional district in 1922. Peery would overwhelm his various opponents, and this election solidified a trend for the small turnout to be even less at the general election than at the Democratic primary.Heinemann Ronald Rozell Mark Milliken John G.
