Governor

No sitting governor is on file for District of Columbia yet. See the governors directory.

State officials & delegates

The people who represent and run District of Columbia at the state level — as opposed to Washington. Its State Senate and House write District of Columbia law (the budget, criminal code, schools); its governors lead the executive; its state-court judges interpret it.
