Fischbach resigns from state Senate, is sworn in as lieutenant governor [View all]
http://www.startribune.com/fischbach-to-resign-state-senate-be-sworn-in-as-lieutenant-governor/483692271/Why? The session is done for this year. Had she resigned before the Senate would have been evenly divided but I doubt it would have made a difference.
And she will be Lt. Gov only until Jan 1 (or whenever the new gov will take office). Unless she will be a running mate to the Republican candidate.
What am I missing?
