Politics of Guizhou

The politics of Guizhou Province in the People's Republic of China is structured in a dual party-government system like all other governing institutions in mainland China.

The Governor of Guizhou is the highest-ranking official in the People's Government of Guizhou. However, in the province's dual party-government governing system, the Governor has less power than the Guizhou Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Provincial Committee Secretary, colloquially termed the "Guizhou CCP Party Chief".
