Who would replace Al Franken?

By Rebecca Berg, Eric Bradner and Jeff Zeleny, CNN

Updated 6:23 PM ET, Wed December 6, 2017

 (CNN)Should Sen. Al Franken decide to step down, his resignation would set up a gubernatorial appointment and open up a new Senate battleground in 2018.


Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton does not plan to get ahead of Franken's scheduled announcement Thursday, a senior Minnesota Democrat close to Dayton told CNN, but the governor's "expectation and hope is for Franken to resign."

Should Franken step down, top names to replace him are Democratic Reps. Keith Ellison and Tim Walz, this official said. Another leading contender will be Lt. Gov. Tina Smith, a former chief of staff to Dayton.

"Don't overlook Lt. Governor Smith," the official said. "She could be the perfect choice."

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

You don't have to be alive to be a Senator in MN. Walter Mondull was their Senator.

I have no idea. It was the only person I could think of from MN other than Ventura.

Josh Hartnett is from MN and very easy on the eye.  I'd vote for him.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

No real change but at least the replacement will be better looking.

LOL...spectacular!

Too bad the My Pillow dude is a Trump supporter and wouldn't get the appointment.  He was such a big coke addict, his dealers staged an intervention.  The press coverage would be priceless.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

No Frank, you have not attained enlightenment. The inner eye you see, is just the hole in your septum.
