Ted Kennedy defeated Republican George Cabot Lodge in the 1962 election with 55% of the vote. The next day he was sworn in as a member of the U.S. Senate by Vice president Lyndon Baines Johnson. (The seat had been filled since JFK’s inauguration in 1961 by a Kennedy family friend who had been appointed by the governor).
So when will Scott Brown be sworn in, I wonder?
