After his election to President of the United States, Obama announced on November 13, 2008 his plan to resign his Senate seat, effective on November 16, 2008. On January 12, 2009, the Senate accepted former Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris as Obama's replacement after he was controversially appointed by Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich.

and Joe Biden resigned his senate seat on January 15, 2009 so as much as I cannot stand her (and also believe the results are fake), there is precedent here
