Following the death of Delaware Governor Joshua H. Marvil, the General Assembly scheduled the next gubernatorial election for 1896, two years into the term. Delaware's gubernatorial elections have been held in presidential election years ever since.

In Florida, the gubernatorial election was held in October for the last time. The subsequent election days were moved to the same day as federal elections from the 1900 elections.[1]
