Democratic Party precinct committee members will gather Monday night to select a replacement for Topeka Rep. Annie Tietze in advance of the special legislative session on school finance.
The person chosen to complete Tietze’s term in the 53rd District in west Topeka would be eligible to remain in office until the 2017 regular session convenes in January. It isn’t clear whether a replacement could be sworn in by June 23 to participate fully in the special session.
