 List of Governors of Virginia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of Governors of Virginia since Virginia became a U.S. state following the American Revolutionary War.
The Governor of Virginia is forbidden by the Constitution of the Commonwealth from serving consecutive terms (the only U.S. state in which gubernatorial incumbents are forbidden from running for governor); however, several governors have served multiple non-consecutive terms.
In Virginia, governors and lieutenant governors are elected separately, so the two can be of different political parties and can be political rivals.
