Kaliforniens guvernör (engelska: Governor of California; spanska: Gobernador de California) är den högste utövaren av verkställande makt i Kaliforniens delstatsstyre. Befattningen är fastställd i delstatens konstitution, är folkvald och tjänstgör en 4-årig mandatperiod, med ett möjligt omval.^[2]^[3]

Guvernörens roll i delstaten motsvarar i stora drag USA:s president i den federala statsmakten. När befattningen är vakant eller då guvernören är oförmögen att utöva ämbetet träder Kaliforniens viceguvernör (engelska: Lieutenant Governor of California) in i rollen.^[3]

Gavin Newsom är Kaliforniens guvernör sedan den 7 januari 2019.

Funktion

Kaliforniens guvernör är det högsta ämbetet i delstatsstyrets verkställande gren, då Kalifornien likt alla delstatsstyren i USA bygger på maktdelning likt USA:s konstitution. Till ämbetet hör en betydande utnämningsmakt till både vakanser för domarbefattningar i samtliga av delstatens domstolar samt till chefsbefattningar för Kaliforniens myndigheter inom den verkställande grenen (som kräver medgivande i Kaliforniens senat).^[4]

I egenskap av delstatens högste företrädare är det guvernören som fungerar som talesperson och förhandlare gentemot den federala statsmakten och andra delstater i USA.^[4]

Guvernören kan lägga in veto mot lagförslag från Kaliforniens delstatslegislatur, både för dessa i sin helhet eller för enskilda poster, s.k. line-item veto.^[4]

Guvernörens är även högste befälhavare för Kaliforniens nationalgarde (när det inte tagits i anspråk för federal tjänstgöring) och ständigt för dess State Guard.^[4]

Val

För att kunna väljas till guvernör krävs amerikanskt medborgarskap och rösträtt samt att vederbörande bosatt i Kalifornien minst 5 fem innan tillträdet.^[3] Guvernören kan enligt förutsättningar som anges i Kalifornierns konstitution avsättas genom revokation (engelska: recall).^[5] Revokation har hittills skett med framgång en gång under 2003 när Arnold Schwarzenegger ersatte Gray Davis som guvernör.^[6]

Andra folkvalda befattningshavare i delstatsstyret

Förutom guvernören är även dessa befattningshavare folkvalda, vilket innebär att guvernören inte kan entlediga någon av dessa. Samtliga väljs vid samma ordinarie tidpunkt som guvernören och under samma mandatperioder.^[3]

När det uppstår en vakans i något av de folkvalda ämbetena ovan så har guvernören rätt att föreslå en efterträdare som ska godkännas med enkel majoritet av båda kamrarna i Kaliforniens delstatslegislatur, men om någon omröstning inte ägt rum i bägge kamrar inom 90 dagar från guvernörens nominering räknas den ändå som godkänd.^[3]
