The LieutenantGovernor of Mississippi is the second highest ranking executive officer in Mississippi , right below the governor . The office of lieutenantgovernor was established when Mississippi became a state, abolished for a few decades in the first half of the 19th century, and restored later in the century. The LieutenantGovernor is President of the state Senate and presides over that body, only voting to break a tie. Compared to the lieutenant governors in other states, Mississippi s has a great deal of power concerning the state Senate. The LieutenantGovernor has the sole ability to appoint members, vice chairmen, and chairmen to the various Senate committees, regardless of each party s strength in the chamber.
