I have to question whether or not Mark Single should be included on this list.
Single was only acting governor for a few months. Unlike with Ridge, Casey never really resigned. He just temporarily stepped down due to health issues.
The list of governors on the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission does not include Single. Check their list of past governors at http://www.phmc.state.pa.us/bah/dam/governors/overview.asp?secid=31
I would think that would be a good argument for not including him here.

- Because no one responded to my post on the discussion page, I removed Single from the list of governors. I made note of Single serving as acting governor with Casey in the same way that the List of Governors of Maryland page notes that Blair Lee III served as acting governor for Marvin Mandel. Please notice that the Maryland Governors list does not include Lee, even though he served as acting governor of Maryland for a longer period of time than Single served as acting governor of Pennsylvania. Also take note of the fact that the Pennsylvania Democratic Party webpage does not include Single on its own list of former Democratic governors. For proof of this, go to: http://www.padems.com/index1024.html, click on "features" and then look at their list of former governors. WayneNight 20:35, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
