Does he have to be seated by turtle?

Remembering the games they played with Franken to keep him out as long as possible

I think he will be seated right away. It doesn't change us to a majority, but it will be one more Dem voice.

I saw a post here explaining this a while back.

I seem to remember it said that he could take his seat in early December. But I also read that it would require the AZ Governor making some sort of formal request.
