Vacancies for Senators and Representatives in Congress

By Massachusetts Trial Court Law Libraries

ADVERTISEMENTS
Since Senator Kennedy's diagnosis of a brain tumor, the question has arisen about how the next person will be selected. Before 2004, the governor had the power to appoint a successor. In 2004, the law was changed to require an election. The election should take place not more than 160 days, and no less than 145 days after the vacancy is created by submission of a letter of resignation. The law is chapter 54 section 140.
Our best wishes to the Senator.
