List of Governors of Maine

The Blaine House is the official residence of the Governor of Maine. The Executive Mansion was officially declared the residence of the Governor in 1919 with the name "The Blaine House." It is located in Augusta, Maine, across the street from the Maine State House.

The Governor of Maine is the head of the executive branch of Maine's state government^[1] and the commander-in-chief of its military forces.^[2] The governor has a duty to enforce state laws,^[3] and the power to either approve or veto bills passed by the Maine Legislature,^[4] to convene the legislature at any time,^[5] and, except in cases of impeachment, to grant pardons.^[6]

According to official numbering, there have been 74 governors of Maine since statehood. 70 men have held the office; 4 of them served multiple non-consecutive terms.^[7] The longest-serving governor was Joseph E. Brennan, who served two terms from 1979 to 1987. The shortest-serving governors were Nathaniel M. Haskell and Richard H. Vose, who each served only one day. John W. Dana also served for one day in 1844, after the incumbent governor resigned, but was later elected to the governorship. The current governor is Republican Paul LePage, who took office on January 5, 2011. He is serving his second term which expires in January 2019.

Maine was admitted to the Union on March 15, 1820, as the 23rd state. Before then, it was the District of Maine, part of the state of Massachusetts.^[8] The Maine Constitution of 1820 originally established a gubernatorial term of one year,^[9] to begin on the first Wednesday of January; constitutional amendments expanded this to two years in 1879^[10] and to four years in 1957.^[11] The 1957 amendment also prohibited governors from succeeding themselves after serving two terms.^[11] The constitution does not establish an office of lieutenant governor; a vacancy in the office of governor is filled by the president of the Maine Senate.^[12] Prior to an amendment in 1964, the president of the senate only acted as governor.^[13]^[14]

Other high offices held

Twenty-four of Maine's governors have served higher federal offices. Seventeen have represented Maine in the U.S. House of Representatives, while two early in the state's history represented Massachusetts. There were also nine governors who served in the U.S. Senate, five (marked with *) resigning their office as governor to enter the Senate. One governor, Hannibal Hamlin, resigned his seat in the Senate to be governor (marked with †), then resigned as governor the next month to rejoin the Senate. Hamlin was also one of three governors to be ambassadors, and the only one to be Vice President of the United States. Two other governors served in the Cabinet.
