The eligibility requirements for Lieutenant Governor are the same as those for the Governor (Const. 1867, Art. II, sees. I, 1A, 2).

In addition, the Lieutenant Governor performs a variety of functions assigned to him by the Governor relating to the preparation of the budget and legislation, as well as the management of the Executive Branch. The Lieutenant Governor succeeds to the office of Governor in the event of a vacancy in that office.
