The 1924 Nebraska lieutenant gubernatorial election was held on November 4, 1924, and featured Republican nominee George A. Williams defeating Democratic nominee P. J. Mullin as well as Progressive nominee Granville Hummer and Prohibition nominee J. F. Webster. Incumbent Nebraska Lieutenant Governor Fred G. Johnson, a Republican, chose not to seek reelection to the office of lieutenant governor in order to challenge George W. Norris for the Republican nomination for US Senate from Nebraska.
J. F. Webster from St. Paul, Nebraska, ran unopposed in the Prohibition Party primary. He was the owner and publisher of The Phonograph, a newspaper in Howard County, Nebraska.[4]
