Pennsylvania SB82 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to alter the election process for the Lieutenant Governor. The amendment would require the Lieutenant Governor to be chosen jointly with the Governor by a single vote from each voter, for the same term and under the same provisions as the Governor. Each gubernatorial candidate would select a Lieutenant Governor candidate, subject to party approval. The Lieutenant Governor would serve as President of the Senate and could vote in case of a tie, except on the final passage of legislation.
