McGreevey could appoint subject to a special election to be held between November 5 and the date when the new Senate is sworn in. That way the term is not extended, because the Torch's seat ends on the date of the swearing in, just as it would have without the special election.
Sorry, don't mean to do the 'Rat's work for them, but that one is pretty obvious.

If McGreevey appoints someone AND calls a special election, and the guy wins, what's the problem? I'm talking about the RATS trying to avoid an election altogether.
