The 1828 New Hampshire gubernatorial election was held on March 11, 1828.[1]
Incumbent Jackson Governor Benjamin Pierce was defeated by Adams nominee John Bell.
Party labels were in flux following the splitting of the Democratic-Republican Party into groups following the 1824 presidential election. Contemporary newspapers refer to Pierce as a "friend of Andrew Jackson" and Bell as a "friend of John Quincy Adams" or "supporter of the Administration"[2] [3] [4] although others suggested Pierce had won the support of many Adams supporters.[5] [6] [7]
