The 1950 New Mexico gubernatorial election took place on November 7, 1950, in order to elect the Governor of New Mexico. Incumbent Democrat Thomas J. Mabry was term-limited, and could not run for a third consecutive term. David Chávez unsuccessfully sought the Democratic nomination.
This was the first gubernatorial election ever in which Roosevelt County backed a Republican. Additionally, Grant County and Otero County voted Republican for the first time since 1920. No Republican candidate would carry the former again until 2014. Doña Ana County also voted Republican for the first time since 1928.
