The 1939 Mississippi lieutenant gubernatorial election took place on November 7, 1939, in order to elect the Lieutenant Governor of Mississippi. Incumbent Democrat J. B. Snider chose not to seek reelection to a second term, instead choosing to run for governor.
As was common at the time, the Democratic candidate ran unopposed in the general election; therefore, the Democratic primary was the real contest, and winning the primary was considered tantamount to election.
