Abercrombie was born on June 26, 1938, in Buffalo, New York, the son of Vera June (née Grader) and George Donald Abercrombie. He has English, Irish and German ancestors. His paternal great-grandfather James Abercrombie left Ireland for Canada; his son then immigrated to the United States.{{cite web| author=Ancestry.com|work=RootsWeb|title=Ancestries of Members of the United States House of Representatives: Neil A.

To support himself as a graduate student, Abercrombie worked as a waiter at Chuck's Steak House in Waikīkī, a locker desk clerk at the Central YMCA, a custodian at Mother Rice Preschool, a construction apprentice program director, an elementary school teacher, and a college lecturer.{{cite web| title=Governor's Biography|url=http://governor.hawaii.gov/governors-bio/| access-date=2013-11-27}}

Abercrombie first participated in a political campaign in 1970, seeking the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. Unsuccessful, Abercrombie ran for the Hawai'i State House of Representatives, where he served from 1975 to 1979. A distinguishing symbol of his early campaigns was a yellow Checker Taxi with his name and face painted on the side, the use of which was motivated by lack of money for traditional campaigning methods. The taxi became a symbol of both his standing as an outsider from the mainland and his unconventional style.{{cite news | title=Politician's big yellow taxi replaced by a leased SUV | newspaper=Honolulu Star-Advertiser | date=August 11, 2011 | url=http://www.staradvertiser.com/newspremium/20110811__Politicians_big_yellow_taxi_replaced_by_a_leased_SUV.html | access-date=2011-08-13 }}{{Dead link|date=April 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} (Subscription required) In 1979, Abercrombie was elected to the Hawai'i State Senate, where he served from 1980 to 1986. After U.S. Representative Cecil Heftel resigned in July 1986 to run for governor of Hawai'i, Abercrombie was elected to the House in a September 1986 special election to complete Heftel's unexpired term. On the same day, he lost the Democratic primary for a full two-year term to Mufi Hannemann, who lost to Republican Pat Saiki in the general election.{{cite web|last=Rudin |first=Ken |url=https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=6154147 |title=Democrats Poised to Make Gubernatorial Gains |publisher=NPR |date=2006-09-27 |access-date=2010-08-23}}

Abercrombie then set his sights on a seat of the Honolulu City Council. He won the race and served from 1988 to 1990.

At the end of his council tenure in 1990, Abercrombie once again ran for Congress and won. He was reelected ten times. In the 2008 election, he won with 70.6% of the vote.

Abercrombie was a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and compiled a generally liberal voting record. He supported and voted for the 2001 No Child Left Behind Act.{{USHRollCall|2001|145}} On October 10, 2002, he was among the 133 members of the House who voted against authorizing the 2003 invasion of Iraq.{{USHRollCall|2002|455}} He cosponsored H.R. 1312 (Assault Weapons Ban and Law Enforcement Protection Act of 2005) on July 28, 2005.{{USBill|109|HR|1312}} He took issue with the Vatican over not listing torture as a sin.{{cite news | last=Camire | first=Dennis | title=Abercrombie seeks Vatican's view on torture | date=March 17, 2008 | newspaper=Honolulu Advertiser | url=http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2008/Mar/17/ln/hawaii803170350.html | access-date=2011-02-24 | archive-date=May 21, 2012 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120521130509/http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2008/Mar/17/ln/hawaii803170350.html | url-status=dead }}

According to Project Vote Smart, Abercrombie holds the following issue positions: he is pro-choice, has voted against a ban on partial birth abortion, and has voted with the interests of NARAL and Planned Parenthood 100% of the time between 2000 and 2006. He has voted for bills designed to make it easier for Americans to vote, such as the motor voter bill. He has advocated strongly for civil liberties; his voting record is supported by both the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and American Library Association. He was one of the 67 representatives to vote against the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) in 1996 and has also voted against a constitutional amendment proposed in 2006 to limit marriage to being between one man and one woman.{{USHRollCall|2006|378}} He was one of only nine representatives not to cast a vote for or against the USA PATRIOT Act in 2001.{{USHRollCall|2001|398}} In 2005 he voted against the extension of the act, calling it "a blank check to trample civil liberties."{{cite news | agency=Associated Press | newspaper=Honolulu Advertiser | title=Hawai'i congressmen divided over Patriot Act | date=December 14, 2005 | url=http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2005/Dec/14/br/br06p.html | access-date=2011-02-24 | archive-date=November 11, 2011 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111111103052/http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2005/Dec/14/br/br06p.html | url-status=dead }} In 2007 he signed on as a co-sponsor of H.R. 676, which would have established a national health insurance program.{{USBill|110|HR|676}} He resigned from Congress on February 28, 2010, to concentrate on his campaign for governor.{{cite news | last=DePledge | first=Derrick | title=Abercrombie files papers, calls for furlough action | date=March 2, 2010 | newspaper=Honolulu Advertiser | url=http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2010/Mar/02/ln/hawaii3020320.html | access-date=2011-02-24 | archive-date=November 11, 2011 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111111034923/http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2010/Mar/02/ln/hawaii3020320.html | url-status=dead }}

He was succeeded in Congress by Republican Charles Djou, the first Republican elected to Congress from Hawai'i since Pat Saiki.

During his campaign, Abercrombie released his "A New Day in Hawai'i Plan,"{{cite web |url=http://governor.hawaii.gov/a-new-day-in-hawaii-plan/ |title=A New Day in Hawaii Plan | Neil Abercrombie |website=governor.hawaii.gov |access-date=22 May 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131122211206/http://governor.hawaii.gov/a-new-day-in-hawaii-plan/ |archive-date=22 November 2013 |url-status=dead}} offering a roadmap based on Hawai'i's values and priorities. The plan was the result of conversations with thousands of people and many hours of research. Abercrombie met with business people, entrepreneurs, economists, principals, teachers, parents, academics, public employees, farmers, nonprofit leaders, health professionals, students, seniors, conservationists, cultural practitioners, construction workers, and citizens of all backgrounds. He also held dozens of issue forums and meetings on every island to hear from residents about their concerns and hopes for Hawai'i.{{cite web | last=Abercrombie | first=Neil | url=http://governor.hawaii.gov/a-new-day-in-hawaii-plan/a-new-day-in-hawaii/ | title=A New Day in Hawaii Plan | publisher=State of Hawaii | access-date=2013-11-27 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131222034418/http://governor.hawaii.gov/a-new-day-in-hawaii-plan/a-new-day-in-hawaii/ | archive-date=2013-12-22 | url-status=dead }}

Abercrombie was sworn in as governor of Hawai'i on December 6, 2010, the first gubernatorial victor of the 2010 election cycle to be sworn into office.

Abercrombie was 72 when he was sworn in as governor, and was the oldest current United States governor for a little less than a month. On January 3, 2011, he lost that title to Jerry Brown of California, who is two months older than Abercrombie.

When Abercrombie took office, he vowed to end the investigations into President Obama's birth certificate. A spokesperson for Abercrombie said he would ask the office of the Attorney General what it could do.{{cite news | last=Shikina | first=Rob | title=Requests increase for Obama birth proof | date=December 25, 2010 | newspaper=Honolulu Star-Advertiser | url=http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/obama/20101225_requests_increase_for_obama_birth_proof.html | access-date=2011-03-05 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111012093020/http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/obama/20101225_requests_increase_for_obama_birth_proof.html | archive-date=October 12, 2011 | url-status=dead }} State Attorney General David M. Louie informed Abercrombie that state privacy laws prevent the release of "an individual's birth documentation without the person's consent" to persons who do not have "a tangible interest" in the document.{{cite news | agency=Associated Press | title=Governor halts Obama-birth effort | date=January 22, 2011 | newspaper=Honolulu Star-Advertiser | url=http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/20110122_Governor_halts_Obama-birth_effort.html | access-date=2011-02-24 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110225111324/http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/20110122_Governor_halts_Obama-birth_effort.html | archive-date=February 25, 2011 | url-status=dead }}

According to polls, in October 2011, Abercrombie was the least popular governor in the country, with a 30% approval rating.{{cite news|url=http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/breaking/132348438.html|title=Abercrombie's job approval rating at lowest level for U.S. governors|publisher=StarAdvertiser|date=October 21, 2011|access-date=October 27, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120502210202/http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/breaking/132348438.html|archive-date=May 2, 2012|url-status=dead}}

In February 2011, Abercrombie signed into law a bill legalizing civil unions. His predecessor, Linda Lingle, had vetoed the legislation.{{cite news | last=Reyes | first=B.J. | title='Today is an amazing day' | date=February 24, 2011 | newspaper=Honolulu Star-Advertiser | volume=130 | issue=24 | page=A1 | url=http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/20110224_Today_is_an_amazing_day.html | access-date=2011-02-24 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120123101007/http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/20110224_Today_is_an_amazing_day.html | archive-date=January 23, 2012 | url-status=dead }} In 2013, he called the Hawai'i Legislature into a special session to consider a bill legalizing same-sex marriage, which he signed into law on November 13.

Upon the death of longtime Senator Daniel Inouye, Abercrombie had to appoint his replacement. The State Democratic Party gave him a list of three finalists and he chose Lieutenant Governor Brian Schatz, despite Inouye's stated wish that he select Colleen Hanabusa. Schatz is now Hawai'i's senior U.S. Senator.

Obama appointed Abercrombie to the Council of Governors, and he served from 2012 to 2014. The council consists of 10 governors the president appoints to focus on national security, homeland defense, and synchronization and integration of state and federal military activities in the United States and matters of mutual interest pertaining to the National Guard.{{cite press release| title=Nation's Governors Welcome New Council of Governors Appointments| publisher=National Governors Association (NGA)| date=2011-03-09 |url=http://governor.hawaii.gov/governors-bio/}}

After an intense special session, Abercrombie signed into law a bill that legalized marriage for same-sex couples in Hawai'i. The new law took effect on December 2, 2013.

In the August 9, 2014, Democratic gubernatorial primary, Abercrombie was defeated by state senator David Ige, taking 31% of the vote to Ige's 67%, making him the first incumbent governor to lose a primary in Hawai'i's history. The margin of defeat was the largest of any incumbent governor in U.S. history{{cite news|last1=Sullivan|first1=Sean|title=Hawaii governor falls to Democratic primary challenger|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-politics/wp/2014/08/10/hawaii-governor-falls-to-democratic-primary-challenger/|newspaper=The Washington Post|access-date=10 August 2014}}{{cite news|last1=Lovett|first1=Ian|title=Hawaiian Governor Loses Primary by Wide Margin; Senate Race Is Undecided|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/11/us/politics/hawaii-primary.html?ref=politics&_r=0|work=The New York Times|date=August 10, 2014 |access-date=11 August 2014}}{{Cite web|url=http://www.centerforpolitics.org/crystalball/articles/a-failure-to-launch-kansas-republican-gubernatorial-contest-and-the-history-of-incumbent-governor-primary-performance/|title=Larry J.

Abercrombie had the support of President Barack Obama and had outspent Ige $4.9 million to $447,000 during the primary campaign. His confrontational style of governing, his proposal to raise taxes in the aftermath of the Great Recession, restructuring labor union pensions, and his selection of Brian Schatz over Colleen Hanabusa to fill the Senate seat vacated by Daniel Inouye's death, which was considered disrespectful of Inouye's wishes, were regarded as factors in Abercrombie's loss.[https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2014/08/10/ige-gov-abercrombie-hawaii-primary/13856153/] Nonetheless, Schatz, who was also endorsed by Obama, defeated Hanabusa in the 2014 Democratic Senate primary and went on to win the general election.
