I think that is normal. They vote in November get seated in January. Nobody EVER gets seated the next day. I think February 1st would be fair since the ones getting voted in during November don’t get seated until January.

But not with special elections.

Remember when Harry Reid wanted to delay seating Scott Brown until after Obamacare votes, but was pressured to seat him right away?

The governor of Alabama can go to the Supreme Court and force McConnell to seat Moore right away, saying that Strange's appointment was temporary and is now expired since the election was held and they have a winner.

“I think that is normal.”

After looking at the State certification process, I would agree that some time will necessarily elapse, particularly since the seat is occupied by Strange. I was just wondering out loud where Bitch would get the authority to say what he did.
