On Your Ballot- Pennsylvania Governor

Periscope Staff

State governors serve four year terms, just like the Presidency. The governor may serve any number of terms but they may not serve more than two in a row. Tom Wolf (D), Pennsylvania’s current governor, has served for the past eight years, making him ineligible to be re-elected this year. State governors are responsible for implementing state laws and overseeing the operation of the state executive branch. State governors do not control national / federal laws.
