Lieutenant Governor elections, 2010
31 states electedlieutenant governors in November 2010, a lower number than the record 37gubernatorial races held that year due to the fact that five U.S. States do not have an office of the lieutenant governor and that one state,Tennessee, automatically makes its Senate President Pro Tem into the Lieutenant Governor.
Ultimately, 21 of those 31 races would go to the GOP in what turned into a wave election for the party. 15 races were on a shared ticket with the governor, five were on a semi-shared ticket - that is, the candidates ran separately in the primary and jointly in the general, and 11 were entirely separate elections.
Because 11 of the 17 states that conduct entirely separate elections for the governor and the lieutenant governor were on the 2010 slate, the possibility of increasing the number of split tickets in the nation's executives existed. In the end, that happened in bothArkansas, with a Democratic governor and a Republican lieutenant governor, and inRhode Island, with an independent governor and a Democratic lieutenant governor. Those two states joinedMissouri andMontana as being governed by two parties in the executive.
