Are you serious? Governor of course. Most U.S. Senators would even rather be Governor of their State. You are only 1 of 50. If you are a U.S. Senator you are 1 of 100. If you are a member of the House, you are 1 of 435.
It's not even close.

The governor, a head of state is more prestigious than a representative.

Governor of a state. He is the chief executive and in charge of the entire state. And there are only 50 governors. There are 435 members of the House of Representatives. They are in charge of their assigned seats in the House...and not much else.

You have more responsibility as governor. Governors always make better politicians than congressmen. Personally, i have more respect for governors than congressmen. I'd say a governor is more prestigious, but that is just my opinion.

Well, there's only 50 governors...I would say that's more prestigous. Besides, have you listened to some of these junior congressmen? They're about one notch above dog-catcher in intelligence.

that's a solid concept to status simply by fact in case you play too long on one status and function already unlocked each thing the interest can grow to be boring because it gives you much less of a venture to you. circulate 4th status that's what i'm at suitable now you additionally can launch greater custom slots as you status too

I think it depends on the state and what the overall goals of the politician are.
