  • A Pdf of the Full Research for NLGA Members Lead the Senates In
    National Lieutenant Governors Association NLGA Members Lead the Senates Key Roles & Predictions of NLGA Members for the 2019 Legislative Sessions By: Julia Hurst, NLGA Director January 31, 2019 Twenty-eight NLGA members preside over state senates as the 2019 sessions begin. Many of these members hold tie-breaking votes, which will be key in several states. Pennsylvania Lt Governor John Fetterman, Michigan Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist, and Virginia Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax all preside over senates with a less-than-7 vote majority of the opposite political party – with Lt. Governor Fairfax holding the tie-breaking vote in a senate with a thin 21-19 Republican majority. NLGA Members Preside Over the Senate in These States in 2019: Alabama Maine New Mexico Tennessee Arkansas Michigan New York Texas Connecticut Mississippi North Carolina Vermont Delaware Missouri North Dakota Virginia Georgia Nebraska Oklahoma Washington Idaho Nevada Pennsylvania West Virginia Indiana New Hampshire South Dakota 2018 was a banner year for elections in the states, and almost half of NLGA Members are newly elected. Due to a change in state law, South Carolina’s lieutenant governor will no longer preside over the senate. A former state legislator, Alabama Lt. Gov. Will Ainsworth spoke on the importance of education, job creation and ethics in government as he presides over the senate. Page 1 of 3 525 W.
