The first female governor was Nellie Taylor Ross of Wyoming, who was elected in a special election following the death of her husband, Governor William Ross. The election was on November 4, 1924 and she was inaugurated on January 5, 1925 (just 2 weeks before the inauguration of "Ma" Ferguson as the first female governor of Texas). She served one term until 1927, being defeated in the election of 1926.
