WITH THE passing of Edward Kennedy, a special election will be conducted to elect a US senator who will serve the remaining three years of his term. This special election will not be held until January. This means Massachusetts will have only half its representation in the Senate until then. With the Senate scheduled to deliberate on health care this fall, Massachusetts should have two votes not one.[...]
note:
We should not wait five months to find a replacement of one member of the cabinet who is already gone.
How I wish I know more about politics so I, myself would be able to understand why we should wait?!
