Senate Vacancy Law Passes
A rare bit of non-absurdity from the executive branch today, as Rell signed the Senate Vacancy bill into law. With all 24 Dems united in the Senate, and enough House members (along with one Republican) to make a 2/3 majority, it was going to happen sooner or later. But it’s nice for Rell not to make the lege jump through hoops for no reason on it: consider sending a note of thanks to Rell for signing the bill into law today.
