United States gubernatorial elections were held on November 6, 1917, in two states. Virginia holds its gubernatorial elections in odd numbered years, every 4 years, following the United States presidential election year. Massachusetts at this time held gubernatorial elections every year. It would abandon this practice in 1920.
