Excellent observations! I understand that an executive order of one governor or president can be overturned by his or her successor.
Bingo.
I am wondering. If a governor commutes the sentence of a prisoner or pardons him, can a subsequent governor reverse that action and return someone to prison if the individual has not been involved in any subsequent misconduct? I doubt that a new governor can do that. Taking away voting rights might raise similar issues.
It's getting harder and harder to tell the R's from the D's.
