The correct answer is D. A special election would be held to fill her office.

Explanation:

Elections are the process by which, through suffrage, citizens of the country vote to elect their representatives in the executive and legislative branches, that is, the President and the Vice President, and members of Congress.

Thus, presidents last 4 years in office, Representatives last 2 years, and Senators 6 years, being elected by the voters, who every two years run for elections, whether they are presidential or midterm.

However, there are some situations in which a relevant position at the state or federal level becomes vacant, without it being replaced by a jointly elected official. In these cases, new elections must be held, which are called special elections, since they are not part of the electoral calendar predisposed every two years, but for the purpose of filling an exceptional vacancy.
