Governors

Template:For New Hampshire was one of the original Thirteen Colonies and was admitted as a state on June 21, 1788.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Before it declared its independence, New Hampshire was a colony of the Kingdom of Great Britain.

The original 1776 Constitution of New Hampshire did not provide for a chief executive. The office of President was created by the 1784 constitution, and renamed Governor in 1792.<ref>NH Const. art. 41</ref> Governors served one-year terms until an 1877 amendment increased this to two years.<ref>NH Const. art. 42</ref> There have never been any term limits for the office, nor is there a lieutenant governor; should the office become vacant, the president of the New Hampshire Senate acts as governor.<ref>NH Const. art. 49</ref>
