If he was a senator, yes.How does choosing his replacement work? Does the NY governor just get to pick whoever they want?
But, I believe it will be decided by a special election

It will be interesting seeing what kind of precedent this will set.
Get rid of the conmen seems like a good precedent to set.
This is just the corrupt weaponised DOJ deep state democrat Reich two tier witch hunt legal system at work
It's about fucking time.He's gone lmao
He defrauded the poor also though, as it happens.There's a logical reason for this, and it's the idea that if someone attemtped to assume dictatorial power they cannot charge their opposition with crimes and then use those charges to remove them from office. Yes it sucks that people like Santos and that corrupt Democrat who recently got indicted seem to think this is insulation from legal accountability, but it's not. It's more of a fail safe, Santos being expelled, charged, and ultimately convicted demonstrates that the system CAN work, albeit I'd wager his persona and sexuality make it so that Republicans were fairly lukewarm about circling the wagons for him, that and that he defrauded the donor class, not the poor.

He's a spectacle, all right.this dude is spectacularly nuts.
Because lots of those in power fear being held to a similar standard, obviously.Honestly, when I heard about this story, I was like... why hasn't he been removed from power and prosecuted?
It makes no sense that it's taken this long.
Post as many examples as you can find of people saying this.He's going to call it a witch hunt, hoax, etc. just like Trump. hell of a cult.
Depends on how much pork barrel money he was able to send back to his district.I wonder if he would have won despite the lying and deception?
