Original Note:
By state law, the governor does not appoint a new congressman. They can only call for a special election. "That election would occur within 70 to 80 days of Hochul calling it, and she would not be able to appoint someone to the seat before then." https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/rep-george-santos-gets-expelled-congress-replacement-elected/story?id=105246712
