The 1881 Minnesota gubernatorial election was held on November 8, 1881, to elect the governor of Minnesota. Incumbent governor John S. Pillsbury was not nominated for a fourth term, in favor of Lucius Frederick Hubbard, who was elected.
On September 28, 1881, the Republican State Convention was held. Despite Hubbard being the overwhelming favorite, multiple other candidates contested in the primary, notably incumbent John S. Pillsbury. Other primary candidates were Andrew Ryan McGill, Thomas Burr Clement, Clark W. Thompson, and J.C. Stover. Stover dropped out after the first informal ballot. In the first formal ballot, Hubbard had an overwhelming victory with 160 votes to runner-up Pillsbury's 51. A delegate opposed to Hubbard said, "Ye love darkness rather than light because your deeds are evil". Passed by acclamation, it was agreed to unanimously nominate Hubbard as the final result. The scene following his nomination was one of 'wild enthusiasm".
On October 6, 1881, the Democratic State Convention was held. The only primary candidate was Richard W. Johnson, who was voted unanimously by acclamation.
