The Lieutenant Governor of Vermont is an elected constitutional officer, the second ranking officer of the executive branch and the first officer in line to succeed the Governor of Vermont. The lieutenant governor is popularly elected every two years by a plurality and has no term limit.

Current officer

The current Lieutenant Governor of Vermont is David Zuckerman (D). Zuckerman assumed office in 2023.

Authority

The Vermont Constitution establishes the office of lieutenant governor in both Chapter II, Sections 1-5, the Delegations and Distribution of Powers and Chapter II, Sections 20-27, Executive Department.

Under Section I:

The Commonwealth or State of Vermont shall be governed by a Governor (or Lieutenant-Governor)...

Qualifications

In order to be eligible for the office of lieutenant governor, a candidate must be a resident of Vermont for at least four years on the day of the election.

Elections

See also: Gubernatorial election cycles by state
See also: Election of lieutenant governors

The Vermont Constitution addresses lieutenant gubernatorial elections not in the section on the Executive but in Chapter II, Section 43-55, Elections; Officers; Terms of Office.

Vermont is one of only two states that elects lieutenant governors biennially, that is, each even-numbered year (e.g. 2020, 2022, 2024, 2026). Legally, the lieutenant gubernatorial inauguration is always set for the first Thursday following the first Tuesday in the January following an election.

By law, lieutenant governors are elected in separate elections from governors in both the primary and general elections. This means it is possible to have a partisan split in the executive office.

If the office of the lieutenant governor is not filled in the election, a joint session of the legislature shall cast ballots to choose among three candidates.
