It's not unheard of. Widows have been appointed to their late husband's senate seats 8 times. The most recent was Jean Carnahan in 2001. A Governor could appoint the widow as a placeholder until the special election and not be seen as trying to play favorites or influence the election.

That's a cool pic with great colors. Is that looking out into a lake or stream or something?

Reply to Okay someone tell me about Condrin Tavern, the house-bar in Bloomfield by livefast_dieawesome
I went in there a couple times when I lived in Bloomfield like 15 years ago. Only bar I've ever been to with a screen door. Beer was cheap and I think for food I got like a microwaved Red Baron pizza or something. Didn't really feel welcome there even though I hung out at all the bars in the neighborhood. I went back to Pollack's.

Reply to My parents and I were at my grandparents’ house a couple months back and found this note my mom wrote in the 70s. Unclear who the intended recipient was. by NoItsBecky_127
That seems like unusual handwriting for the 70s.
