List of current state governors in Mexico

The Head of Government of Mexico City is not considered a governorship, but the position is included on this list of governors for completeness.

Article 115 of the current Federal Constitution states that, for their internal government, the states shall adopt the republican, representative, democratic, secular, and popular form of government, with the free municipality as the basis of their territorial division and political and administrative organization.

The election of governors of the states and the local legislatures shall be direct and in the manner prescribed by their respective electoral laws.

State governors serve six-year terms and, like the President of Mexico, they are barred from seeking reelection.

No one who has previously held a governorship may run for or serve in the post again, even on a caretaker basis.
