Governors

A governor, also known as ruyselu rusera (literally "local ruler") is the head of region in Malborya. It is responsible for implemeting region laws and it can veto any decision and propose amendments to said decisions approved by the local parliaments. Governors cannot be a member of a political party and cannot be supported by one, as it is illegal to do so. The governors are usually elected by elections organized by the local governments, the method and rules of governor elections vary by region. In 2012, Parlamenta approved to set the maximum gap in-between two governor elections to six years.

 Limitations of power set by the region 

Some regions have applied laws that limit the power of the governor to some extent. In Malbory, Porteca, Victoria, Elduvy and Lachte, the governor's veto can be ignored if two-thirds of the local parliament supports the decision. Local parliaments in Rupestry, Florencia, Elduvy and Victoria have the ability to impeach the governor. Local parliament of Lachte has the ability to call in an "emergency election" if it suspects the governor abusing it's powers.

 Term limits 

Many regions have set term limits on their governor elections. As of July 2020, only three regions have no term limit laws: St. Andrea, Florencia and Klocke-Yoyl. The Florencian local parliament rejected a term-limits bill in 2013, and again in 2016. Andrean local government removed term limits in 1994, claiming they were not useful and caused political instability. Padna Darveganz, former governor of Klocke-Yoyl, holds the record of longest serving governor, serving four consecutive terms (48 years, from 1950 to 1998)

Eight regions have term limit laws, either absolute or partial, except Victoria, which is considered "partially absolute". Lachte issues term limits based on the age of the governor at the time of their first day at the office, the only region to do so.
