Brown University Alumni Achieve Gubernatorial Wins, Tying Harvard for Most Governors
Brown University alumni Hannah Pingree and Rob Sand triumphed in their gubernatorial races in Maine and Iowa, respectively, during the recent elections. These victories, combined with Brown alum Matt Meyer already serving as governor in Delaware, will result in Brown University tying with Harvard for the most alumni serving as governor come January. The news was met with school spirit at a Brown Political Union election party, where students cheered for these wins alongside other election upsets. Professor of Public Policy and Political Science Eric Patashnik noted the success of his former student, David Morales, a democratic socialist state representative who also won decisively in Providence.
