List of Lieutenant Governors of Alaska

This is a list of people who have served as lieutenant governor of the U.S. state of Alaska since statehood in 1959. The position did not exist prior to statehood, though the territorial-era Secretary of Alaska was somewhat analogous. Prior to August 25 1970, the position was referred to as Secretary of State, but was functionally identical.

In Alaska, the lieutenant governor runs separately from the governor in the primaries, but after the primaries, the nominee for governor and nominee for lieutenant governor run together as a slate.
