You Can Be Anything

The question of the day comes from the CLC Electrical Engineering exam: How many people appointed to State Senate seat in District 26 does it take to screw in a light bulb?

HaHa, trick question. There isn't anyone appointed to the District 26 State Senate seat. Not if you believe the opinion of some District 26 Republicans:

Barrington Hills Trustee Darby Hills' appointment to a vacant state Senate seat should be nullified because she doesn't meet the state's definition of a Republican, a lawsuit filed Tuesday argues.
McConchie's would-be successor isn't a Republican and can't serve, lawsuit alleges

Illinois Senate Republicans were quick to defend their newest appointee: "Of course she is a  Republican. It's not like she was the President of Barbieland or something. Now, bet your bottom dollar the President of Barbieland is not a Republican. But our new State Senator is no President of Barbieland!"
