The Wyoming gubernatorial election of 1910 took place on November 8, 1910. Republican incumbent Bryant B. Brooks chose to not seek a second term as Governor of Wyoming and continued the trend of one term governors of Wyoming. Joseph M. Carey, a former Republican member of the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives, ran as the Democratic nominee for governor and defeated Republican nominee William E. Mullen and Socialist candidate W. W. Paterson with 55.60% of the vote.^[1]

Two years later Joseph M. Carey joined Theodore Roosevelt's Progressive Party but in the 1912 presidential election Theodore Roosevelt came in third and only received 21.83% against Woodrow Wilson's 36.20% and William Howard Taft's 34.42%.

Carey was the first Democratic Governor of Wyoming since John Eugene Osborne in 1892.
