The 1882 Colorado gubernatorial election was held on November 7, 1882. Democratic nominee James Benton Grant defeated Republican nominee E. L. Campbell with 51.07% of the vote. This election marks the first time that Colorado ever supported a Democratic Party candidate for governor. Grant flipped 11 counties previously won by Pitkin, most notably Arapahoe County, home at the time to the state capital of Denver. Conversely, Campbell only managed to flip two counties, namely the sparsely populated counties of Costilla and Huerfano in southern Colorado.
