520			_aRecent years have marked the advent of a variety of institutional mechanisms designed to enhance governors' capacity to oversee and bureaucracy. In many states, more traditional gubernational resources have also been bolstered. This study evaluates the effectiveness of these tools in influencing the policy activities of state agencies. We find that, in general, these resources significantly increase the amount of gubernatorial influence reported by state administrators. Our evidence suggests that institutional mechanisms specifically directed at bureaucratic influence may be taking the place of more general institutional powers as the primary mechanism for executive influence on state agencies. - Reproduced.
