Well, of course, Haley winning the seat certainly seems an ideal solution to this mess. But I don't know that he wants to go to Washington, that may be one reason he plans to run for governor, so he can stay home. As I understand the statute, if Lott resigns his senate seat by the end of this year, then Musgrove can appoint someone to temporarily fill the seat for 90 days until a special election is held. If he resigns after 1 January then whomever Musgrove appoints holds it until the next scheduled election in November. I'm so tired of this mess and you know Mississippians are sick to death of it.
