There have been 72 Governors of MA (including Charlie Baker, elected the other day.)
31 of them have been republican.
And of 7 of the last 10 have been republican.
Our state is a liberal crazy zone. Our Govs have been left leaning Republicans (tend to be social liberal and fiscal moderates). The Republican Party, in the State, could hold a meeting in a large bus. But we are pretty consistent when it comes to electing R Govs.
Interesting stats.
Michigan is the same way and most of our governors have been republican.
