| | GG - Female Governors in the United States (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) |
 | | Two of the three women governors of Arizona, (Mofford and Hull), had been Secretary of State and assumed the office when the elected governor was unable to complete his term. |
 | | Nellie Tayloe Ross, the nation's first woman governor, (she and "Ma" Ferguson were elected on the same day but Ross was sworn in first), won a special election to complete her deceased husband's term but failed to win her bid for election to a full term of her own. |
 | | Nine female governors (Blanco, Granholm, Lingle, Martz, Minner, Napolitano, Rell, Sebelius and Walker) will all be serving in July 2004 topping the record high of six set the previous year when 12% of all US governors were women (Granholm, Lingle, Martz, Minner, Napolitano and Sebelius). |
