The governor of Nevada is the head of government of the U.S. state of Nevada.[2] The governor is the head of the executive branch of the Nevada state government. The governor is also the commander-in-chief of the state's military forces.[3] The governor has a duty to enforce state laws[4] and the power to either approve or veto bills passed by the Nevada Legislature,[5] to convene the legislature at any time,[6] as well as, except in cases of treason or impeachment, to grant pardons and reprieves.[7]
The governor serves a four-year term.[8] An amendment in 1970 limits them to two terms, even if they are non-consecutive.[9] The lieutenant governor of Nevada is not elected on the same ticket as the governor. Should there be a vacancy in the office of governor, the powers devolve onto the lieutenant governor.
The current governor is Republican Joe Lombardo, who took office on January 2, 2023.

Territory of Nevada
Nevada Territory was formed on March 2, 1861, from Utah Territory.[10] It had only one governor appointed by the president of the United States before it became a state.
Before it was organized as a territory, a local convention in Genoa elected Isaac Roop provisional governor, taking office on December 15, 1859.[11]
