Reply to comment by ChickenGreaseLips in Can Fettermans wife really become the senator if he’s unable? by ChickenGreaseLips

Yes, his wife can take over for him and becomes senator for life due to a technicality in how the law was written

this is misleading. theres no technicality or chain of command where a vacated senate seat automatically goes to the spouse of the former senator. The only way his wife would “take over” is if shapiro appointed her to the seat, which i guarantee would never happen.
