Senator Peltola is now in position to be named the 56th Democrat Senator-elect (Senator Peltola=56).

Will it be called for her on November 12, the Superior General’s 78th birthday, the day he begins his 79th year of life?

If it takes longer (which it sounds like it will), November 17 is the 79th day of her age, and November 18 is 79 days after her birthday.
