 Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton will name his pick to replace Senator Al Franken tomorrow. Franken announced his resignation last week amid a growing cloud of sexual misconduct allegations. Dayton's pick will serve through next year's election when voters will pick a candidate to finish Franken's current term, which ends in 2020. A Democratic official familiar with discussions on the appointment told the Associated Press last week that Lieutenant Governor Tina Smith was Dayton's preferred choice. The Democrat requested anonymity because the deliberations before the announcement were private. Smith did not immediately respond to messages today.
