The 2014 South Dakota gubernatorial election took place on November 4, 2014, to elect the Governor and Lieutenant Governor of South Dakota, concurrently with the election of South Dakota's Class II U.S. Senate seat, as well as other elections to the United States Senate in other states and elections to the United States House of Representatives and various state and local elections.
Incumbent Republican Governor Dennis Daugaard ran for re-election to a second term in office. He won the Republican primary and ran again with incumbent Lieutenant Governor Matt Michels. The Democrats nominated State Representative Susan Wismer, who chose former State Representative Susy Blake as her running mate. Independent Mike Myers also ran, whose running mate was former Republican State Representative Lora Hubbel.

- Running mate: Lora Hubbel, former Republican State Representative and Republican candidate for Governor in 2014. Myers' initial running mate was Caitlin Collier, an attorney and Democratic candidate for the State House in 2008. After Collier announced her withdrawal from the race in June 2014 because of a family illness,[20][21] Myers attempted to replace her with Hubbel, who had run against Daugaard in the Republican primary. However, Secretary of State of South Dakota Jason Gant refused to remove Collier's name, saying that state law had no provision for replacing an Independent candidate on the ballot.[21] In July, Myers sued the Secretary of State to allow him to change his running mate[22] and on August 18, federal judge Lawrence L. Piersol of the United States District Court for the District of South Dakota ruled in Myers' favor.[23][24]
