re: #250 Skip Intro
I was big on Franken resigning because his seat would be filled with another Democrat. Then yesterday someone mentioned that McConnell would do everything is his power to refuse to seat Frankenâs replacement, and I realized the poster was right.
So I am now on board with the Franken should stay crowd.
No, that wonât happen. Frankenâs original seating was delayed because of the recount. If Franken resigns and the Governor appoints a replacement, McConnell has zero grounds to refuse to seat him or her.
