1982 Maine gubernatorial election

The 1982 Maine gubernatorial election took place on November 2, 1982. Incumbent Democratic Governor Joseph Brennan, who defeated Georgette Berube for his party's nomination, defeated Republican challenger Charles R. Cragin, who defeated Sherry Huber for the Republican nomination. Brennan defeated Cragin, winning his re-election by the highest percent margin in more than thirty years.

The 281,066 votes received by Brennan represented the single highest vote total for governor in Maine history, until the re-election of Governor Janet Mills in 2022. Brennan's coattails allowed Democrats to win the first trifecta in the state since 1913. This was the first time a gubernatorial candidate won a majority of the vote since 1970, this would not occur again until 1998. This was the only time between 1974 and 2022 that no third-party candidate received more than 5% of the vote.
