The 2022 California lieutenant gubernatorial election was held on November 8, 2022, to elect the lieutenant governor of the state of California. The election coincided with various other federal and state elections, including for Governor of California. The nonpartisan blanket primary was held on June 7. California is one of 21 states that elects its lieutenant governor separately from its governor.
Incumbent Democratic Lieutenant Governor Eleni Kounalakis won re-election to a second term with 59.7% of the vote, defeating her Republican challenger. This is the first time in history where both party nominees for this seat were women, and Jacobs was the first African-American woman in history to be nominated for this position.
