Thank goodness we have a Senator who is thinking about us, even in his time of loss and grave illness. He is so right, we need his vote in the health insurance fight.
Ailing Kennedy Asks For Speedy Replacement Process
A cancer-stricken Sen. Edward M. Kennedy has asked Massachusetts leaders to change state law to allow a speedy replacement if it becomes necessary for him to surrender his seat, fearing a months-long vacancy would deny Democrats a crucial vote on President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul.
In a note to Gov. Deval Patrick and other state leaders, Kennedy wrote “it is vital for this commonwealth to have two voices speaking for the needs of its citizens and two votes in the Senate during the approximately five months between a vacancy and an election.”
