The Iowa Lieutenant Governor is a statewide constitutional office in Iowa. The lieutenant governor and the governor run together on the same ticket. Prior to the 1998 state election, the governor and the lieutenant governor ran separately.

The lieutenant governor serves a four-year term. The lieutenant governor stands ready to succeed the governor in case of death, impeachment, resignation, removal from office, or other disability. The lieutenant governor's duties are assigned by the governor.

The current officeholder is Patty Judge.
