The 6 Democratic candidates for Virginia Lt. Governor, in their own words Dave Ress, Daily Press
Virginians will get to choose among six candidates seeking the Democratic Party nomination for lieutenant governor in the June 8 primary.
The winner will face off against a GOP nominee, to be selected Saturday in that party’s convention.
Nominally the No. 2 post in state government, the lieutenant governor’s powers are limited to presiding over the state Senate, with the power to cast tie-breaking votes on some bills, though not on the state budget. The lieutenant governor also steps in if the governor dies or when the Attorney General, the President pro tempore of the state Senate, and the Speaker of the House of Delegates, or a majority of the total membership of the General Assembly declare the governor is unable to discharge the duties of office.
