The Governor of Milan is the chief executive of the Commonwealth of Milan and is elected on a separate ballot from the Lieutenant Governor for a four-year term, which is limited to two terms. The Governor is responsible for the administration of the state government and the enforcement of state laws. The Governor is also the commander-in-chief of the state's military forces and has the power to call up the state's National Guard in times of emergency. The current holder of the office is Cauã Corrêa, who was sworn in on 5 January 2030 as the 79th Governor of Milan. His term will expire on 2 January 2034. Corrêa is a member of the Social Democracy Party and was elected to the office on 2 October 2029, to succeed fellow party member Anteros Ballas.

The Governor of Milan is responsible for presenting the state budget to the Legislature, as well as signing or vetoing legislation passed by the Legislature. The Governor also has the power to grant pardons, reprieves, and commutations to individuals convicted of crimes in the state. They are assisted in his or her duties by a cabinet of elected officials who head various state agencies and departments. These officials are directly elected by the citizens of the Commonwealth, but typically fall closely in alignment with the Governor.

History

The office of the Governor of Milan has a rich history, dating back to the state's founding in 1711. Milan was the first state in Cartadania to elect a female Governor, which happened only in its third election after joining the union, in 1719. Since then, the state has had a number of notable Governors who have left their mark on Milan's history and helped to shape the state's government and policies.

Throughout its history, the Governorship of Milan has played a pivotal role in the state's political and economic development. Many Governors have championed policies to promote trade, tourism, and cultural preservation. In fact, Milan is known for its unique blend of Cartadanian and Burgoignac culture, the only state in Cartadania with this history, which has influenced its governance style throughout the years.

The Governor of Milan is responsible for leading the state's executive branch, which includes overseeing the state's budget and implementing laws passed by the state legislature. The Governor also has the power to veto legislation, though the legislature can override the veto with a two-thirds vote, like in most other states.

Since Milan values diversity and inclusivity, the state has a history of electing diverse candidates, including the first female Governor in Cartadanian history in 1719. Additionally, unlike many other states in Cartadania, most of the executive officials that comprise the Governor's cabinet are elected by the citizens of Milan rather than being appointed by the Governor.
