The office of Lieutenant Governor was created by a Constitutional Amendment ratified by the peo-
ple on November 3, 1970 (Chapter 532, Acts of 1970). "The Lieutenant Governor is the second-ranking
officer of the State. He is elected for a term of four years by popular vote at the same election at which
the Governor is elected, his term of office beginning on the third Wednesday in January following his
election. The eligibility requirements for Lieutenant Governor are the same as those for the Governor
(Const. 1867, Art. II, sees. I, IA, 2). He receives an annual salary of $52,500.

The Lieutenant Governor has only those duties delegated to him by the Governor. Since 1971 the
Lieutenant Governor has been designated Secretary of the Governor's Cabinet. In addition, the Lieu-
tenant Governor performs a variety of functions assigned to him by the Governor relating to the prep-
aration 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.
If the Governor-elect fails to assume office for any other reason than his disqualification, resignation,
or death, the Lieutenant Governor becomes the Acting Governor. He also serves as Acting Governor
in case of the Governor's disability (Const. 1867, Art. II, sees. 4, 5, 6, 7, 7A).
