I wondered that on the last few go-rounds- how does NY fill DA slots,
especially in the middle of a term? The shows have referenced elections
before, so I assume it is elected. Does the governor have the right to
appoint tem****ary DAs if one quits or dies? Do they hold a special
election?
And did they explain on-camera what happened to the Branch character?
(I've missed a few episodes this season, including all of the one that
went cable-only. Not sure if I even get that channel.)
