The 1994 New Hampshire gubernatorial election took place on November 8, 1994. Incumbent Governor Steve Merrill won re-election to a second term in a landslide amidst the concurrent Republican Revolution.
Despite his high popularity as governor, Merrill chose not to seek a third term in 1996, citing wanting to spend more time with his wife and kids. Following this election, Democrats would control the governorship for 18 of the next 20 years.
