Thomas Dale "Tom" Emberton, Sr. (born ca. 1934), is a retired Kentucky politician and judge. He was the Republican nominee for Governor of Kentucky, U.S. in 1971. He lost to the Democratic Lieutenant Governor, Wendell H. Ford. Ford polled 470,720 votes (50.6 percent) to Emberton's 412,653 (44.3 percent).

Prior to his candidacy, Emberton had served as a member of the Public Service Commission in Governor Louie B. Nunn's administration.

In 1980, Emberton ran for Congress in Kentucky's 5th District, but lost the primary to the eventual winner, Hal Rogers of Somerset.

In 1987, Democratic Governor Wallace Wilkinson appointed Emberton to fill a vacancy on the Kentucky Court of Appeals. He held that position until his retirement in 2004. Emberton resides in Edmonton, the seat of Metcalfe County in southern Kentucky.
