The 1777 Delaware gubernatorial election was held on February 12, 1777. The president of the committee of safety John McKinly was elected president of Delaware for a term of three years. McKinly, a physician and a militia officer from Wilmington, Delaware, was a political moderate chosen for his ability to appeal to all factions in the revolutionary government. His lack of distinction led critics to dismiss the incoming president as "a mere patch upon the back" of the powerful president of the Council George Read. The election was conducted by the Delaware General Assembly. McKinly was elected with a majority on the first ballot.
