Senate to convene Sunday, January 19 to elect new president
Friday, Nov 22, 2019 - Posted by Rich Miller * The chamber had previously scheduled a January 28th return date… I’m told the reason for an early return is to allow time for the new Senate President to prepare for the spring session. …Adding… January 19 is Gov. Pritzker’s birthday, but he’ll have to preside over the Senate. Oops.

Does the governor need to be the presiding officer on the 19th in choosing the new President?

I assume they’ll move it if the bears are playing in the nfc championship that day
