Quote Constitution those who would see the lieutenant governor s place filled by appointment by the governor predicate their stand two sections the Constitution setting out the Powers and duties the governor and lieutenant governor a Section 7. The lieutenant governor shall be president the Senate but shall have Only a casting vote therein. If during a vacancy in the office governor the lieutenant governor shall r be impeached displaced resign die from mental physical disease otherwise become incapable performing the duties his office the Secretary state shall act As governor until the vacancy shall be filled the disability removed a Section 8. When any office shall for any cause become vacant and no Mode is provided by the Constitution Law for filling such vacancy the governor shall have the Power to fill such vacancy by question interpretation it is pointed out that the executives authority to fill the present vacancy is Given in the latter Section because the first Seimon provides for the Secretary state to act As governor Only in the event a vacancy in the lieutenant governorship also and that no other provision is made for filling the vacancy in the office lieutenant governor. Others however Quot hold that the fact that provision is made for succession the Secretary state to the executives chair under those conditions implies that it was not the intent the framers the Constitution to have the lieutenant governorship filled by appointment and declare that the governor May not so appoint.
