It is shown that there is Gribov ambiguity in finite temperature Abelian gauge theory if the gauge theory is defined on the full gauge orbit space. This is demonstrated geometrically and by an explicit construction of solutions to the Gribov equation. Its effects on the evaluation of the temperature-dependent partition function are noted using the Faddeev- Popov procedure.
