Never should have happened.
I know the governor said he would not appoint McCain to the Senate when her dad passed away, and he didn’t by appointing Jon Kyl. However, Jon Kyl only agreed to serve until the end of the year for certain. If the governor wins re-election, I expect Joh Kyl to resign at the end of the December and then the governor will be free and will appoint Meaghan to serve until 2020 when the seat will be up for re-election.
