You'd only need to hold off till the Nov election to accomplish that.

What I read was that is the MAGAots plan to avoid a Democrat filling the temporary seat.
Apparently both sides want the seat to remain empty as long as possable. Hense everybody is denighing he's dead.

Not so.

The new Senator elected in November does not assume office until January. If you elect a replacement in November the replacement takes office immediately.
 
SC Governor says windsocks like Graham are hard to replace. Finding another boneless person will be a struggle.

He will be replaced with a special primary. Count Binface has not said he is interested in running. The Governor is charged with selecting the replacement for the remainder of the term. It is unknown whether the Grindr account will be closed or will transfer to the temporary replacement. The loss of Graham means there will be available space in Trump's rectum for another spineless fool.

By "the Nov election" I was refering to the annual 'General Election'. If you hold off a special election till Jan. A new senator will have already been elected in Nov.
What I read was that Sept. is the deadline for a special election. And a 'replacement' only serves till Jan. If you hold of till the day before, he only serves one day. The 'special election' is only for a temp fill gap.

(NOTE I am still talking about McConnell.)

Reported that Graham died of an aortic dissection. Unsure of how that is different from an aneurism.
 
It's an ultimate case of Elensky curse. Piece of shit died after he returned from a trip to Kiev.

I understand.

The fact that a new Senator will already have been elected is irrelevant as far as I can see. You still need to elect one to fill the remainder of the unexpired term. If the replacement only serves one day, great. That's the whole point of this exercise in machiavellianism.

Can you point me to a source for the "September deadline" claim? The relevant law only says the election cannot be any earlier than 63 days after the vacancy is declared. Nothing that I can find imposes a deadline.
 
Will this be the first time Lindsey Graham's seat has been filled?
 
Lindsey Graham's sister has been picked to fill out the rest of his term.

An aortic aneurysm is a weak spot in the wall of the aorta that begins to bulge or balloon outward, as shown in the image on the left. An aneurysm can occur anywhere in the aorta. People with an aortic aneurysm have an increased risk of a tear in the aortic lining, called a dissection. It is shown in the image on the right.

Death would be very quick unless you got immediate medical help, ie surgery.

I wonder if he had been diagnosed with an aortic aneurysm before this fatal event?

Probably not. Most cases get diagnosed accidentally, e.g. through an ultrasound looking for something else.

Location also plays a big role, with ascending aorta aneurysms being most difficult to repair.

True but he was old enough that it was not unlikely that he would face at some point in the last several years to have required a scan that might have revealed the aneurysm.
 
Perhaps unrelated.

Giant Grease Fire in Hell
(July 11, Hell) - Massive pools of burning grease and combusting gasballs were reported at the admitting tunnel of Hell, according to government sources. EPA chemist Doug Dill said the gases consist of methane, arsenic, ammonia, and various combusting adipose compounds. "It stinks like a bitch down there," Dill added, "and I'm not going anywhere near it."
Fox News corrspondent Bret Baier represented the press pool and interviewed several of the staff of Hell about the blaze. Admitting Imp Wormwood told him that "a new arrival" had started the blaze. "Look, we're all about flames down here, but this is ridiculous," Wormwood stated. "I'm supposed to eat my lunch with this shit happening?"
Assistant Admitting Imps Falwell, Swaggart, and Roberts confirmed Wormwood's account that an arriving client had apparently self-combusted on Saturday night. Roberts added, "The clean-up will take weeks if not months. We need at least 5000 faith partners to send in a $100 love gift so that Hell can be ready to accept and service its daily intake of clients. Send your donation in care of me, Imp Roberts, not to be confused with Jack Van Impe." Falwell added, "Or me, Imp Falwell." Swaggart began to speak when the other two assistant imps ordered him to "shut the fuck up."
The admitting tunnel is scheduled to reopen on Wednesday morning. Until then, new arrivals have been housed in a temporary ICE shelter, Camp Miller.
