The 1932 Wyoming gubernatorial special election took place on November 8, 1932. Just several weeks into his second term, Republican governor Frank Emerson died in office. Secretary of State Alonzo M. Clark ascended to the governorship, and a special election was called for 1934. Clark ran for re-election, but was defeated in the Republican primary by State Treasurer Harry R. Weston. Meanwhile, former state senator Leslie A. Miller, the unsuccessful Democratic nominee against Emerson in 1930, once again ran for the office and won the Democratic primary. In the general election, another close election ensued. But Miller, likely aided by Franklin D. Roosevelt's strong performance in Wyoming in that year's presidential election, narrowly defeated Weston to win his first term as governor.
