 
The 1890 Nebraska lieutenant gubernatorial election was held on November 4, 1890, and featured Republican nominee Thomas Jefferson Majors defeating Populist nominee William H. Dech and Democratic nominee Alex Bear as well as Prohibition Party nominee George W. Woodbey. Incumbent Nebraska Lieutenant Governor George D. Meiklejohn did not seek reelection as lieutenant governor in order to seek the Republican nomination for the US House of Representatives in Nebraska's 3rd congressional district, but he was unsuccessful.
For the Republican and Democratic candidates, Thomas J. Majors and Alex Bear, this election represented a rematch of a special election for Nebraska's at-large congressional district where both Majors and Bear ran against each other to fill the vacancy created by the death of Frank Welch. Majors was ultimately successful in that election.
This was the first Nebraska election in which members of different parties were elected to the offices of governor and lieutenant governor, as James E. Boyd, a Democrat, was elected governor while Thomas J. Majors retained the office of lieutenant governor for the Republicans.
