	Lieutenant Governor of Tennessee
		The Lieutenant Governor of Tennessee is the Speaker of the Tennessee State Senate and first in line in the succession to the office of Governor of Tennessee in the event of the death, resignation, or removal from office through impeachment and conviction of the Governor.
		The Lieutenant Governor as a member of the Tennessee Senate has a four-year term as a Senator but is subject to reelection by his peers with each new legislature, as the Senators' terms are staggered by class and there could be a 50 percent turnover in membership between one legislature and the next.
		Under the Tennessee Constitution, in the event of succession the Speaker does not become "Acting Governor" or "Interim Governor" but Governor in the fullest sense of the word, much as the Vice President of the United States becomes President upon the death or resignation of the President.
