2024 North Carolina lieutenant gubernatorial election

The 2024 North Carolina lieutenant gubernatorial election will be held on November 5, 2024, to elect the lieutenant governor of North Carolina, concurrently with the 2024 U.S. presidential election, as well as elections to the United States Senate, elections to the United States House of Representatives, and various other state and local elections. Incumbent Republican Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson was eligible to seek re-election to a second term in office, but is instead running for governor.

Primary elections took place on March 5, 2024. Because no candidate received more than 30% of the vote in the Republican primary, a runoff was held on May 14.
