Before, the Texas governor had very little power at his disposal compared to other state governors, but that has changed in recent times. Now, when ranked amongst the other fifty states, Texas stands about midpoint of gubernatorial powers. As of right now, the governor has roughly about seven roles, consisting of five formal roles and two informal roles but there are many limitations and obstacles that are present. Unfortunately, not many Texans are aware of the limitations imposed on the governor and thus look to the chief executive of state for leadership. Those that do know are divided between those who do believe that Texas should increase the power of the governor and those who oppose the idea of giving them more power.
