It sounds like Perry should be the senator. That would be good for all of us. It wasn’t made clear in the article . . . does Hutchinson remain in the Senate, then?

yes KBH stays in the Senate until she either resigns which she said she was going to do or until her term is up in 2012.

A couple line vanity and you didn’t understand?..... lol

Perry Senator, I don’t think that will happen and he’d be about as bad as KBH if he was in DC.

The senate seat is up for election in 2012. If she resigns at some point as she has said she would then Perry can/will appt a temp senator to hold the job until a special election can be held to fill the seat comes up for election in 2012. Timing of KBH’s resignation is critial to when the special election could be held. The next ‘uniform election’ date that fits the schedule if she resigns fairly soon would be Nov. 2, 2010. That election would be a ‘jungle’ type in which all candidates would run head up with a majority needed to win. If no majority then the top two vote getters are in a runoff.
