There are 50 states and each state sets its own requirements, but I know from my own state of VA they are not the same. There is probably an additional requirement in every state that the governor live in the state. Where I live , the governor has to be at least 30 , have lived in the state for at least 5 years and be a US citizen. The age requirement and residency requirement both vary in the different states.
