CHICAGO, Illinois (CNN) -- Indiana Gov. Frank O'Bannon died Saturday, his spokesman said. The governor was 73.

O'Bannon, who was in his seventh year as governor, died at 11:33 a.m. EDT in the neurointensive care unit of Northwestern Memorial Hospital, five days after suffering a massive stroke, according to a written statement from his office.

O'Bannon suffered the stroke Monday and has spent the week in critical condition and on life-support in Chicago, where he had been attending a conference.

oh dear... :eh:

so how does that work? is there a second in line? or is Indiana governorless for awhile?
 
IN is weird. The 2nd in command is the Lt Governor but the head of each house has to pass along a recommendation to the state Supreme Court which in turn votes "aye" before he can become more than acting Governor. (it happened)
