*California’s governor may not grant a pardon or commutation to a person twice convicted of a felony except on recommendation of the state Supreme Court, with at least four judges concurring. **Death penalty abolished prospectively in CT and NM but inmates still on death row. ***Florida's governor must have recommendation of Board, on which he or she sits. ****Without a recommendation of the Board, the Governor cannot grant clemency. The board either initially rejects an application, or choses to submit to the Governor for further consideration, without the recommendation, the Governor cannot even consider the application. For Federal Death Row inmates, the President alone has pardon power. Source: Death Penalty Information Center, State Government Websites
