2021-22 Gubernatorial Overview

February 19, 2021 at 2:26 pm EST By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

Just for members: Inside Elections.

This issue includes a 2021-22 governors overview, including ratings and write-ups for all 38 states electing a governor in the next two years.

With Congress likely to be closely divided for the unforeseeable future, the push for major policy movement and experimentation could shift to the states — so pay attention to the governors races.
