Title of page[edit]

After looking at the discussion, I realize the page is somewhat misnamed. Maybe "by longevity", or some other words indicating what the page is about Bcperson89 (talk) 06:27, 7 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Terry Branstad and non-consecutive terms[edit]

The chart shows Brandstad serving for a few months, which is correct for the current term but he has served as governor for 16 years in the past. Perhaps a footnote should be included. 128.252.254.26 (talk) 04:07, 26 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Terry Branstad is no longer the Governor of Iowa, so he has been removed from the list. He left the Governor's Office on May 24, 2017, in order to take the position of United States Ambassador to China. Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 06:10, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't this still be an issue with Jerry Brown. It has him serving for the same amount of time as those elected in 2011, despite the fact Governor Brown held two terms of office long before his 2011 election.--2601:642:C301:119A:6515:93D9:C2BB:AD0D (talk) 03:46, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

U.S. territories[edit]

I've noticed that only governors of states are included in this list and that the governors of the territories are not. The governors of the U.S. territories need to be on this list as well as they are American governors too. The governors of the territories are no less an American governor then a governor of a state. And as we all know, most current states were territories before they became states. So somebody needs to add the territorial govenors. The U.S. territories are: Guam, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islans, American Samoa and the Northern Mariana Islands. To get info about the current governors of the U.S. territories just visit the National Governors Association (NGA) website at http://www.nga.org . Or you can go directly to the biographies of the territorial governors, as well as the state governors, at the NGA website here: http://www.nga.org/cms/render/live/governors/bios — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.55.249.62 (talk) 13:12, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have started to add a section on the Governors of the five Territories of the United States. Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 06:15, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Demographics of state governors[edit]

The section #Demographics of state governors is unsourced and looks like OR or synthesis. It is also info that can soon become outdated. Is there any good reason why it should not be deleted? --David Biddulph (talk) 21:46, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
