Lt. Gov.-elect Dan Forest
print friendly

Republican Dan Forest is North Carolina's 34th lieutenant governor. An architect by profession, Forest had never run for elected office before the 2012 campaign.

The lieutenant governor is elected separately from the governor. He serves as president of the Senate and presides over sessions, although he has little influence over the flow of legislation or appointments of committees. 

Forest, 45, is married and has four children. He is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
