A sitting senator not up for reelection resigns, so he can run against the other senator from the state in a general election?
For instance Harry Reid resigning his seat and then running against Ensign... The Dem governor (remember this is what hypothetical) appoints another democrat for his seat, then Reid winning agains Ensign and NV has 2 dem senators...
