Did we make a constitutional amendment to allow this?  I'm trying to remember.

Ok, so it seems the reason we can have party appointments to fill the seat is because of the constitution doesn't specify if or how a senate vacancy is filled if the vacancy occurs after three weeks before the next regular election:

I don't think saying five weeks before the next term works because there may be cases where that is not the same as 21 days before the election.

Would this language work? (It's an amendment)

That's pretty confusing honestly.    There's got to be a simpler solution.

Why the change from 21 to 35 days before the election?
