Delware Governor Ruth Ann Minner has named Ted Kaufman to fill the Senate seat of Joe Biden.
Kaufman is a longtime aide to Biden. He’ll serve until 2010, when a special election will determine who will hold the seat for the remaining four years of Biden’s term.
Under Delaware law, Biden was allowed to run for both vice president and senator this year. He won both races, and so must resign from his newly-won Senate term to serve as VP.
