The 1900 Tennessee gubernatorial election was held on November 6, 1900. Incumbent Democratic governor Benton McMillin defeated Republican nominee John E. McCall with 53.86% of the vote.
The state's Republican Party had come under the control of Congressman Walter P. Brownlow. Seeking to unseat McMillin, Brownlow and his faction nominated Representative John E. McCall as the party's candidate for governor. While the party ran a strong campaign, McMillin was easily re-elected by winning 145,708 votes to 119,831 for McCall.[1] [2]
