The 1942 Wisconsin lieutenant gubernatorial election was held on November 3, 1942. Incumbent Walter Goodland was re-elected to another term, defeating Progressive Henry Berquist and Democrat John Brophy.
This race was notable due to the death of governor elect Orland Steen Loomis, and the ensuing court battle over who would take office in his stead. The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that Lieutenant Governor Walter Samuel Goodland would serve Orland Loomis's term as governor, overriding the view of incumbent Governor Julius Heil that he should continue his term in office.
