	Clarifying purpose and achieving balance in gubernatorial administration. \| Journal of State Government (July, 1989)
		Martha Weinberg, who served two gubernatorial administrations, questioned "why there was such a discrepancy between what we had come to expect from governors and what they actually are able to do" (Weinberg 1977, ix).
		Most state constitutions declare "the supreme executive power of this state shall be vested in a governor" and empower the governor "to faithfully execute all the laws of the state." The open-ended nature of executive power lends itself to creativity and expansion but also opens the opportunity for confusion and error, trouble and mischief.
		Lack of clarity in purpose and imbalance in power among gubernatorial staff, central budget staff, political executives and the bureaucracies lead to inertia and disunity in administration.

		Gregoire led in almost all polls conducted leading up to the election, but Rossi was able to close in on her late in the race and won considerable support from Eastern Washington.

	Governor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In all states, the governor is directly elected, and in most cases has considerable practical powers (notable exceptions with very weak governorships include Texas), though this is moderated by the state legislature and in some cases by other elected executive officials.
