John McCain is supposedly trying to hang on till past May 31st, after which he will either die or resign.
The reason: so the PEOPLE don't get to choose his successor!
If he dies or resigns before May 31st, there will have to be an election to fill out his term (he was just reelected in 2016).
If he dies or resigns after that, then the governor can appoint somebody until the 2020 election.
And McCain has already supposedly given the governor a list of people to succeed him, one of which would be his wife, Cindy. And wouldn't that be special!
The Senate seat is HIS, ya see!
John McCain. Odious to the end, and if he has his way, even AFTER the end!
I thought most here were pulling for him to hang on so we would have an appointment?

Does he really have that much clout in Arizona?
I would not be surprised if he’s already technically brain dead, and Cindy is threatening to pull the plug unless she gets his seat.
He’s still alive?
You should want McCain to live past May 31, and then retire. That way there is no special election until 2020 when the environment might be better for Republicans.
I don’t agree with much of what he has done in the past few years, but personal attacks on him and his family are uncalled for at this time.
Die already, Songbird, you corrupt old Keating 5 scumbag.
This absolute nutcase turncoat is going to have a mighty small funeral. “Satan” & all his evil angels are laughing their heads off, realizing that John McCain will get zero royal treatment in “Hell”!!! LMAO!!!
When No Name faces God and has a review of his life, he will be sent to Satan.

“...John McCain, who has risen to political prominence on his image as a Vietnam POW war hero, has, inexplicably, worked very hard to hide from the public stunning information about American prisoners in Vietnam who, unlike him, didn’t return home. Throughout his Senate career, McCain has quietly sponsored and pushed into federal law a set of prohibitions that keep the most revealing information about these men buried as classified documents. Thus the war hero who people would logically imagine as a determined crusader for the interests of POWs and their families became instead the strange champion of hiding the evidence and closing the books...”
A traitor and a backstabbing piece of globalist **** deserves whatever he has coming to him.
At which point, as Governor, you say "sure, John." And then when he dies, do whatever hell you want.
I’m for the people choosing their representatives, not having their representatives chosen for them.
That’s in ALL cases, not just when it’s convenient.
We don’t want anther special election in this state, too much money and manpower to have two senate elections.
I’m trying to be a good Christian, but now McCain has set his own conditions for me to hope he dies within the next 3 weeks.
Having had a relative who died from this gawdawful disease, there comes a time when you have to realize the cancer is talking, not a functioning brain. In McCain’s case, that hasn’t happened quite yet. He has been a sick puppy, mentally, for a long time.
The election would be the same day as the OTHER election, the same day as ALL the elections, the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November.
There’s new rules for the Keating 5 corruptocrat.
