The United States Constitution proscribes six-year terms of office and the placement of seats in specific classes mandating the end of their terms. US Const. Art I §3(1) & (2).
The United States Supreme Court has interpreted the Times, Place and Manner clause as mandating the November general election and held that any conflicting state stautes are inoperative so far as the conflict extends. Foster v. Love, 532 US 67, 118 SC 464, 139 LE2d 369 (1997).
