The Governor leads your state's government. The correct answer depends on where you live.
Why it matters
D.C. has no Governor - its residents may answer that D.C. does not have one. Find your state's Governor on its state page.
The 65/20 special consideration
Question 43 is not in the 65/20 set. An applicant who is 65 or older and has been a lawful permanent resident for 20 years or more studies only the 20 marked questions, so this one would not be asked. Everyone else studies all 100.

Questions the officer draws from the same part of the test. Studying them together is what keeps their answers apart.
