In general terms, the 'message-power' of a state's governor can affect state-legislation that is being debated, and that eventually does (or does not) pass, in quite a profound way. Similar to the rhetorical influence of the president, a state-governor is able to speak directly to the people through various channels that can inspire direct and indirect influences on legislation within the state in question.
