The '''1994 California gubernatorial election''' was held on November 8, 1994, in the midst of that year's "[[Republican Revolution]]". Incumbent [[California Republican Party|Republican]] [[Pete Wilson]] easily won re-election over his main challenger, [[California Democratic Party|Democratic]] State Treasurer [[Kathleen Brown]], the daughter of [[Pat Brown]] and younger sister of [[Jerry Brown]], both of whom had previously served as governor. Primaries were held on June 3, 1994.

Although Wilson initially trailed Brown in the polls as a result of the state's faltering economy, his signature opposition to [[affirmative action]] and state services for illegal immigrants (with the associated [[Proposition 187]]) eventually led to his win. Wilson won 25% of the [[African-American]] vote, a fairly strong performance for a Republican; however, he won only 25% of the [[Latino vote]], a weak performance which was widely attributed to his support of Proposition 187. This election was the first California gubernatorial election since [[1974 California gubernatorial election|1974]] in which the winner of the gubernatorial election was of a different party from the incumbent president.
