Which state-level offices can you vote for *seperately* on the ballot (i.e. states where the Governor and Lt. Governor run on one ticket, list as "Governor/Lt. Governor") in your state?

In Washington State:

Governor
Lt. Governor
Secretary of State
State Treasurer
State Auditor
Attorney General
Commissioner of Public Lands
Superintendent of Public Instruction
Insurance Commissioner

All of them are partisan except for Superintendent of Public Instruction.

In New Jersey, I believe that the Governor is the only statewide elected official. The other executive officers are appointed by the Governor.

Governor
Attorney General

Oh yeah, Governor and Lt. Governor run on the same ticket in the General. I didn't want anyone to think we didn't have a Lt. Governor (though I wish we didn't have the particular person serving in the office right now).

I would have to agree.  She is a disgrace to our state.

Especially since her action at that soldier's funeral. Angry

In New Hampshire, the governor is our only statewide elected office.

Attorney general is an appointed position by the governor. We have no lieutenant governor.

Not to mention that she has trouble presiding over the State Senate (her constitutional duty) and she has publicly referred to the Governor as "Edward G. Robinson."

Governor
State Treasurer
Secretary of State
Attorney General

The lieutanant governor runs with the governor on a single ticket, and cannot be voted for separately.

The whole cabinet here, obviously, but none state-wide, sorta...parliamentary system.

Phil-a democrat's really going to audit a democrat, or a republican a republican Tongue

Tennessee, unfortunately, probably has fewer state elected officers than any other state.  I'm shocked that the Dems in the legislature even let us vote for Governor.

Governor.
