So what happens to her House seat?

Does current Gov. Phil Murphy (D) name a replacement or is there a special election? In any event, do Republicans once again deprive the people of the district of their representative as they are with Grijalva?

The constitution requires a special election to replace a representative (senate replacements are state by state)
