Longest serving Governors in history?

[Barnes]

Well, no GA Governor has served overt two terms. But these might be of interest:

-Zell Miller. Served as Lt. Gov. for 16 years from 1975-1991
-Thomas B. Murphy. Served as Speaker of the GA House for 30 years, 1973-2003. The longest serving Speaker in the Country.

Hah, well Washington has only had four State Auditors since 1905, including one who served for 32 years (1933-1965).

We also had a Lt. Governor who served for 32 years (1957-1989).

Good god.
