Governing: Two states will soon have new governors as a result of appointments by President-elect Donald Trump. In one of those states, that could mean real political change.
Iowa's Terry Branstad, the longest-serving governor in the nation's history, will be leaving to serve as ambassador to China. His lieutenant governor, Kim Reynolds, is a close ally who's not expected to deviate from the pro-business, conservative course set by Branstad.
