The purpose of this research was to investigate whether the governance of the executive and legislative branches of the municipalities of the State of Espírito Santo is influenced by the mesoregions in which the municipalities meet. In respect to that, a chi-square test (χ²) was used to identify possible associations between groups of the mesoregion variables and public power governance. The results indicate that there is no association between the governance capacity of local administrations and the mesoregions where they are located. However, an association between the legislature governance capacity and the mesoregion in which the city council is located was identified. In this case, the central and southern mesoregions of the state of Espírito Santo presented better results in terms of governance stage in comparison to the northwest and north coast mesoregions. This result can be explained by the typical regional identity of the mesoregions and by considering that 73.82% of the State of Espírito Santo’s population is located in the central and southern mesoregions, which may contribute to improve governance control of these organizations by the society.
