A gubernatorial election was held on Saturday, 16 April 2072 to elect the Governor of Addams. United nominee Mitchell Stoner narrowly defeated Conservative nominee Jaden Cashman after preferences. Incumbent governor Vivian Jasfydartua (of the United Party) retired and did not seek a third term.
The results showed a severe split in the right-wing vote between Cashman and Buddy Rentschler of RUC–LA. This election was the first time since 2028 where the United Party finished first in terms of first preference votes.
