Since it's such a popular topic, I wanted to post this event I developed (after an agonizingly long series of tests) which will automatically assign a new governor to empty provinces.
While I'm working on more complex versions (i.e. one which chooses by finesse level - for pure automation - and one which chooses by trait - to represent character ambition & plotting & such) this version simply chooses any random character with no job to fill any province with no governor.
Use it as you wish.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You will not see this event fire! It is a silent event - i.e. one which fires in the background. If anybody wants one where they can see who/where/when, I have that too, so just ask & I'll post it.
Here it is:
