The Senate passed bipartisan legislation, on Monday, with a vote of 46 to 2, to amend the state constitution to change how the lieutenant governor is selected in Pennsylvania.
According to Skook News, Senate Bill 133 amends the state’s constitution to permit candidates for governor to choose their lieutenant governor candidate after the primary election – a process that mirrors how presidential candidates currently select their vice presidential running mates.
The bill now moves to the House of Representatives. If approved by that chamber, it will again be voted on by both chambers during the 2021-2022 Legislative Session.
