| Description | Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval (R) said Friday he will announce a Senate appointment before May 3, when scandal-plagued Sen. John Ensign’s (R) resignation becomes official.
“Pursuant to the relevant law I expect to announce an appointment before the resignation effective date of May 3. I take very seriously the importance of this appointment, so to speculate on potential candidates for appointment before then would be premature,” Sandoval said in a statement.
Most of the political world assumes his choice will be Rep. Dean Heller (R), who is already running for the Senate seat in next year’s election. If appointed, the three-term Congressman would instead be running as a sitting Senator.
