Each state has a constitution that specifies what happens. Usually the lt. Governor takes over and there is a special election, or the state house representatives appoint a pro tem Governor.
A special election held in a single constituency to fill the place of the constituency's MP if they have died, resigned or moved to another position.
South Carolina's next general election will be November 4, 2014. However, there may be special, county, and municipal elections held throughout 2013.
No, a presidential election, which in the U.S. is a statewide election held on the same day in all U.S. states plus the District of Columbia that determines which presidential and vice-presidential candidates' followers will be appointed as electors of the President and Vice President, is part of a general election. General elections are regularly scheduled elections held in anticipation of a new term beginning for certain offices. Special elections are held in response to an unscheduled event, such as a Congressperson or Senator dieing in office or resigning mid-term. Some special elections are held in conjunction with general elections. The general election of vice presidents and lieutenant governors removes the need for the special election of presidents and governors by having elected officials in position to take over immediately in the event of a president or governor dieing, resigning or being removed from office.
The first US election was held in Virginia.
In the context of the U.S. federal government, a special election is not held to determine who shall be president if both the president and vice president are lost, because the Speaker of the House immediately becomes president and serves the balance of the presidential term.
Whenever a seat in the U.S. Senate or House of Representatives is vacated due to death, resignation or removal, the State Governor issues a Writ of Election, and a special election is held to fill the seat for the remainder of the term. The special election can coincide with a regular congressional election. In the case of a vacated Senate seat, the Governor can appoint someone to temporarily fill the seat until an election can be held if the state legislature grants him that power.
