Of the three U.S. presidents who were impeached -- Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Donald Trump -- none were ever convicted or removed from office. But when it comes to governors, the history of impeachment is quite different. There have been 15 governors in U.S. history who were impeach, brought before a legislative trial -- including two governors who were impeached twice. Of those 15, eight governors were convicted and left office either through removal or their own resignation.
