I wonder if private citizens can bring charges against people like a governor or attorney general for violating the constitution.

My guess is, probably not. Because of "qualified immunity," you would probably have to prove willful intent to knowingly violate someone's rights.

Qualified immunity is a type of legal immunity that protects a government official from lawsuits alleging that the official violated a plaintiff's rights, only allowing suits where officials violated a “clearly established” statutory or constitutional right. “Qualified immunity balances two important interests—the need to hold public officials accountable when they exercise power irresponsibly and the need to shield officials from harassment, distraction, and liability when they perform their duties reasonably.”

Maj John Bell - Even suing and losing might be a step in the right direction if its done with enough fanfare. At least you might get voters to sit up and listen, then vote them out.
