The 1902 South Dakota gubernatorial election was held on November 4, 1902. Incumbent Republican Governor Charles N. Herreid ran for re-election to a second term. He faced former Watertown Mayor John W. Martin, the Fusion nominee who was listed as the Democratic nominee, in the general election. Herreid defeated Martin in a landslide to win his second term.

At the Republican convention in June 1902, Governor Charles N. Herreid was renominated unanimously and without opposition.^[1]

As was the case in 1898 and 1900, the Democratic and Populist Parties held separate conventions and then fused together with a common set of nominees. However, this time, the parties agreed that the ticket, though fused, would be listed as the Democratic Party on the ballot.^[2] At the conventions, former Watertown Mayor John W. Martin^[3] was named as the Fusion nominee.^[2]
