The first 1831 Massachusetts gubernatorial election was held on April 14.
National Republican Governor Levi Lincoln Jr. was re-elected to a seventh term in office over Democrat Marcus Morton. This was the final regular Massachusetts election scheduled for April before the schedule changed to November, where it remains as of 2025. Lincoln was elected to a reduced term of eight months expiring in January, instead of the typical year-long term ending in May.
