Correct Answer: A

Choice A is the best answer. The antecedent is "the governor" (singular). "He" correctly refers to the singular person in this context.

Choice B is incorrect because "They" is plural. Choice C is incorrect because "It" refers to an object. Choice D is incorrect because "You" is second person.
