The Lieutenant Governor of Georgia is a constitutional officer of the state, elected to a 4-year term by popular vote. Unlike in some states, the Lieutenant Governor is elected on a separate ticket from the state Governor.
Constitutionally, the Lieutenant Governor's primary job is to serve as President of the Senate. In the case of incapacity of the Governor, the Lieutenant Governor assumes the powers (but not the title) of the Governor. Should the Governor die or otherwise leave office, the Lieutenant Governor becomes Governor for the remainder of the term of office.
The office of Lieutenant Governor was created by a state constitutional revision in 1945. Prior to that time, Georgia did not have such an office. Elected in 1946 (for a term to begin in 1947) to be Georgia's first Lieutenant Governor, Melvin Thompson became involved in the infamous Three Governors Controversy.
The current Lieutenant Governor of Georgia is Casey Cagle.
Eligibility
Article V, Paragraph IV of the Georgia State Constitution details the qualifications for the office of Georgia's Lieutenant Governor. In order to be eligible for the office a person must have lived in the United States for 15 years and in Georgia for six years and be at least 30 years old. The Lieutenant Governor of Georgia has no restrictions on the number of times he or she can hold the office.
A lieutenant governor, lieutenant-governor, or vice governor is a high officer of state, whose precise role and rank vary by jurisdiction, but is often the deputy or lieutenant to or ranking under a governor — a "second-in-command". In many Commonwealth of Nations states, a lieutenant governor is the representative of the monarch and acts as the nominal chief executive officer of the realm, although by convention the lieutenant governor delegates actual executive power to the premier of a province. The Dutch political system also includes and has included lieutenant governors, who act as executors of overseas possessions. In India, lieutenant governors are in charge of special administrative divisions in that country.
In the United States, lieutenant governors are usually second-in-command to a state governor, and the actual power held by the lieutenant governor varies greatly from state to state.
In Canada, a lieutenant governor (/lɛfˈtɛnənt/; French [masculine]: lieutenant-gouverneur, or [feminine]: lieutenant-gouverneure) is the viceregal representative in a provincial jurisdiction of the Canadian monarchand head of state, QueenElizabeth II, who resides predominantly in her oldest realm, the United Kingdom. On the advice of his or her prime minister, the Governor General of Canada appoints the lieutenant governors to carry out most of the monarch's constitutional and ceremonial duties for an unfixed period of time—known as serving at His Excellency's pleasure—though five years is the normal convention. Similar positions in Canada's three territories are termed Commissioners and are representatives of the federal government, however, not the monarch directly.
The offices have their roots in the 16th and 17th century colonial governors of New France and British North America, though the present incarnations of the positions emerged with Canadian Confederation and the British North America Act in 1867, which defined the viceregal offices as the "Lieutenant Governor of the Province acting by and with the Advice the Executive Council thereof." However, the posts still ultimately represented the government of Canada (that is, the Governor-General-in-Council) until the ruling in 1882 of the Lord Watson of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the case of Maritime Bank v. Receiver-General of New Brunswick, whereafter the lieutenant governors were recognized as the direct representatives of the monarch. Per the Constitution Act, 1982, any constitutional amendment that affects the Crown, including the Offices of the lieutenant governors, requires the unanimous consent of each provincial legislature as well as the federal parliament.
In Australia, a Lieutenant-Governor is a standing appointment for a deputy Governor of a State, who acts in place of the Governor if the Governor is unable, unavailable or unwilling to act.
Constitutionally, Australian State Lieutenant-Governors, Administrators and Chief Justices of State Supreme Courts are normally separate offices. However, in many States, such as New South Wales, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is also the Lieutenant-Governor. In 2001, the Constitution of Queensland was amended to restore the office of Lieutenant-Governor in that state. When a State Governor dies, resigns, or is absent, an Administrator, or acting Governor, would be appointed. In the case of State Governors this officer may either be an "Administrator" or the "Lieutenant-Governor". The State Lieutenant-Governors/Administrators have no standing powers but stand ready to take up the Governor's role.
In some states, there is also a standing Deputy Governor, who can exercise only the powers which the Governor delegates to him or her.
Georgia was one of the original Thirteen Colonies and ratified the Constitution of the United States on January 2, 1788. Before it declared its independence, Georgia was a colony of the Kingdom of Great Britain. Like most early states, Georgia had claims to western areas, but did not cede its claims during the formation of the country like the other states. It sold this area, the Yazoo Lands, to the federal government on April 24, 1802, when it was assigned to Mississippi Territory.
In the Rules and Regulations of 1776, considered by some to be the first constitution, the chief executive was a president chosen by the legislature every six months. This was quickly superseded by the 1777 constitution, which called for a governor to be chosen by the legislature each year, with a term limited to one year out of every three. In the event of a vacancy, the president of the executive council acted as governor. The governor's term was lengthened to two years in the 1789 constitution. The 1798 constitution modified succession so that the president of the senate would act as governor should that office become vacant. An 1818 amendment to that constitution extended the line of succession to the speaker of the house, and an 1824 amendment provided for popular election of the governor.

Alberta Lt. Gov. Salma Lakhani delivered the speech from the throne on Tuesday ahead of the fall sitting of Legislature. Following the speech from the throne, the United Conservative government introduced its proposed Alberta Sovereignty within a United Canada Act.
The province says that if passed, the act could be used “to stand up to federal government overreach and interference in areas of provincial jurisdiction, including… private property, natural resources, agriculture, firearms, regulation of the economy and delivery of health, education and other social programs.
“I hope we never had to use this bill,” Premier Danielle Smith told reporters in a news conference. She added “We need the power to reset the relationship with Ottawa,” and that “I believe it's already working."
The bill would come into force upon royal assent — after it passes the third reading and is signed by the Lieutenant Governor — which could happen during the legislative session.

There have been several instances in India in recent years of Governors and elected State governments not seeing eye to eye.
The role, powers, and discretion of the Governor’s Office in multiple States has been debated for decades.
Therefore, it is important to understand what the framers of the Constitution had in mind for the powers granted to the Governor and Lieutenant Governor.

North Carolina's lieutenant governor flew to Houston, Texas to speak at the National Rifle Association's annual convention this weekend.
Some scheduled speakers and performers have backed out, including two Texas lawmakers and “American Pie” singer Don McLean, who said “it would be disrespectful” to go ahead with his act in the aftermath of the country’s latest mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

Tennessee Lieutenant Governor Randy McNally is facing questions over comments he left on a young man's suggestive Instagram photos. CNN's Randi Kaye reports. #CNN #News
It’s been a chaotic few weeks for the Ford government, from a judge ruling Bill 124 was unconstitutional to the backtrack on the notwithstanding clause. As Cynthia Mulligan reports, the LG seemed to be sending a strong message.
The Lieutenant Governor of Georgia is a constitutional officer of the state, elected to a 4-year term by popular vote. Unlike in some states, the Lieutenant Governor is elected on a separate ticket from the state Governor.
Constitutionally, the Lieutenant Governor's primary job is to serve as President of the Senate. In the case of incapacity of the Governor, the Lieutenant Governor assumes the powers (but not the title) of the Governor. Should the Governor die or otherwise leave office, the Lieutenant Governor becomes Governor for the remainder of the term of office.
The office of Lieutenant Governor was created by a state constitutional revision in 1945. Prior to that time, Georgia did not have such an office. Elected in 1946 (for a term to begin in 1947) to be Georgia's first Lieutenant Governor, Melvin Thompson became involved in the infamous Three Governors Controversy.
The current Lieutenant Governor of Georgia is Casey Cagle.
Eligibility
Article V, Paragraph IV of the Georgia State Constitution details the qualifications for the office of Georgia's Lieutenant Governor. In order to be eligible for the office a person must have lived in the United States for 15 years and in Georgia for six years and be at least 30 years old. The Lieutenant Governor of Georgia has no restrictions on the number of times he or she can hold the office.
Since 1867, the governor general has represented the Crown in Canada, but what other tasks lay ahead for Mary Simon?
