an interesting story tangentially related to this is when Kentucky Lt. Gov. Thelma Stovall became acting governor (because the governor, Julian Carroll, was outside the state) and vetoed the legislature's rescission of Kentucky's earlier ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment (which had itself passed in a special legislative session called by the previous governor, on a tiebreaker vote in the Senate cast by the then-lieutenant governor--none other than Julian Carroll, who would go on to take a conveniently-timed vacation outside the state as governor a few years later).
