Roberto von Archimboldi · 4w Can someone explain how this works? A senator dies and the governor can just appoint any person she likes to replace her? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jul/14/darline-graham-nordone-south-c... Dave @Dave 1784103800 @nprofile1q... There's an election coming up in November anyway. Before that, they have to choose someone to replace Graham in that election.OTOH they could just leave the seat empty till the new senator is sworn in in January.
