When it comes out that he’s dead but they waited long enough that there is no time for a special election, they should just have the special election anyway, because he was away from his duties before the deadline.

No. Kentucky’s governor should just immediately appoint a replacement, because the law requiring a special election was already unconstitutional (according to KY’s state constitution) to begin with. Which is also, by the way, probably why they’re continuing to conceal his death even after the fake ‘deadline’ has passed.
Part of the reason for the deadline is so the special election could be held properly with sufficient time to staff and run it how you’re supposed to.
Regardless of this fucking chicanery nobody should be pushing to give them excuses to water down election integrity or change established rules on the fly. He can be ousted in the midterms.

At this point they will keep covering up his death until Jan 21st.
I dare they make him immortal, since legal death just turns out to be so hilariously circumventable.
AI Mitch will agree with everything the president says!
