The Province of Bali has been under the auspices of various leaders who have changed the socio-economic and cultural conditions of the Balinese people. There have been at least nine governors and two acting governors who have led the Province of Bali with various backgrounds such as bureaucrats/non-party civil servants, the military and political parties.

Elections Since 2005 as the enactment of Law Number 32 of 2004 in Indonesia, heads of local government (governors, regents and mayors) along with their deputy have been directly elected by popular election.
