The 2008 American Samoa gubernatorial election took place on November 4 2008 coinciding with the 2008 United States general elections and the American Samoa general election. Because no candidate received more than 50% of the vote a runoff election between the top two candidates was held on November 18 2008 which Togiola Tulafono won. All elections in American Samoa are officially non-partisan but Tulafono and Sunia identify with the Democratic Party.
