> If Akin were to step down who would take his place?

Either of the primary runnerups would have been a better choice if akin would have done the right thing and stepped down.

His desire for power and selfishness prevented him from doing what is right. Without the democrats voting for him in the primary he would have lost.

That wouldn't have been possible because Missouri has a sore loser law.

Thanks for your reply.

How would the runner up be chosen?

The number of votes received?
