Answer:

Members of the king's council chose the governors, and the legislature was a single member assembly. The governor was appointed by the monarch and members of the upper house of the bicameral parliament were chosen from his council.

The governors were elected by male property owners, and laws made by their bicameral legislatures were not subject to the governor's veto.
