Arizona Governor’s Chief Of Staff Leads List Of Potential Appointees To Fill Late Senator’s Seat

Sen. John McCain’s death certainly left a hole in America’s heart, but it also has left a vacant Senate seat, one that will have to be filled before the Senate resumes its work in the fall.

Arizona governor Doug Ducey is charged with the responsibility and has said that he plans to appoint someone to the seat soon after Sen. John McCain has been laid to rest, but out of respect for the family, is not entertaining any offers to fill McCain’s vacant spot in the Senate while the late senator lies in state, first in Arizona and then in the United States Capitol, before being buried later this week.
