The 1950 Connecticut lieutenant gubernatorial election was held on November 7, 1950 in order to elect the lieutenant governor of Connecticut. Republican nominee and former mayor of Hartford Edward N. Allen defeated Democratic nominee Dennis M. Carroll. This was the first lieutenant gubernatorial election since the law was changed to have Connecticut's lieutenant governors elected every four years, instead of every two years, as had been done previously.
