Thanks for the summary, good work!
I'm actually opposed to hold elections for such positions. First because the office by nature shouldn't be politicized, even if it's formally a nonpartisan election. And second, even more important, I doubt a lot of people pay attention to such elections in the first place. It's just too many elections that no average person can keep track with. Low turnout and weak legitimization are inevitable consequences. Such positions should be filled by appointment of governors or mayors and legislative confirmation.
On topic, it should be noted that the winner would have to handle a potential Trump indictment, upon which Vance will have to decide before leaving office, according to MSNBC.
