Ken Lemke (born c. 1951) is a politician in Alberta, Canada. He served as mayor of Stony Plain from 2007 to 2012. Lemke then went into provincial politics, and represented Stony Plain from 2012 to 2015, as a Progressive Conservative.

Lemke successfully ran for town councillor in 1995. He held this position for four terms, until deciding to take a run for mayor. Lemke was elected mayor of the Town of Stony Plain in 2007, and was acclaimed in 2010.
