I mean Graham and his sister have a tragic backstory, so I don’t think it would raise many questions.
As best I can tell this is the first case of a sibling taking over. There are also fewer recent examples than I thought. I assumed a “window succession” was fairly standard, but it seems it’s been 25+ years since it happened last (in the US Senate).

Ok yeah, that one’s on me, I probably should have read the Wikipedia article a bit more before making my comment. But the succession thing is weird and this is the first I’ve heard of it. Sounds like it might only be temporary? Who knows these days.
