The LieutenantGovernor of North Dakota is a political office in North Dakota .

Should the Governor s office become vacant, the LieutenantGovernor assumes that office. The current LieutenantGovernor is Drew Wrigley . With the election of Governor John Hoeven to one of North Dakota s Senate seats in November 2010, then LieutenantGovernor Dalrymple automatically assumed the governorship upon Hoeven s resignation. Dalrymple appointed Wrigley to be LieutenantGovernor shortly after. Under North Dakota state law, upon a vacancy in the LieutenantGovernor s office, the Governor is allowed to appoint the position. On November 4, 2010, Lt. Governor Dalrymple announced that upon his succession to the Governor s office, he would appoint former North Dakota U.S. Attorney Drew Wrigley as the new LieutenantGovernor. Dalrymple and Wrigley were officially sworn in to their new positions during a joint session of the North Dakota Legislative Assembly on December 7, 2010. Originally, the LieutenantGovernor was elected separately from the Governor of North Dakota . This, however, allowed the LieutenantGovernor and the Governor to be from different parties, which sometimes created hostile situations between the two officers. This was changed in 1974, and since then, the Governor and Lieutenant are elected together on a joint ballot and are of the same party.
