Incumbent <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Party_(United_States)" title="Democratic Party (United States)">Democrat</a> <a href="/wiki/Luther_H._Hodges" title="Luther H. Hodges">Luther H. Hodges</a> defeated <a href="/wiki/Republican_Party_(United_States)" title="Republican Party (United States)">Republican</a> nominee Kyle Hayes with 66.95% of the vote. </p><p>This election was unusual for North Carolina at the time, in that a sitting Governor ran for another term. The <a href="/wiki/Constitution_of_North_Carolina" title="Constitution of North Carolina">Constitution of North Carolina</a> at the time had a one-term limit for governors, but Hodges, as lieutenant governor, had succeeded <a href="/wiki/William_B._Umstead" title="William B.

In 1977, the state's voters approved an amendment to the state constitution permitting the governor to serve two consecutive four-year terms. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Primary_elections">Primary elections</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1956_North_Carolina_gubernatorial_election&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Primary elections"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Partisan_primary" class="mw-redirect" title="Partisan primary">Primary elections</a> were held on May 26, 1956.<sup id="cite_ref-North_Carolina_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-North_Carolina-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Democratic_primary">Democratic primary</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1956_North_Carolina_gubernatorial_election&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Democratic primary"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Candidates">Candidates</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1956_North_Carolina_gubernatorial_election&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Candidates"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Luther_H._Hodges" title="Luther H.
