What if both Senators of a State Have the Same Last Name?

[Free Bird]

What would they be called in the roll call? Mr. Castro of Texas, Mr. Castro of Texas?

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

This is why I hope dan Sullivan of Alaska replaces Murkowski.

[mencken]

How does roll call work for the Sanchez sisters?

[Senate Minority Leader Lord Voldemort]

In the Senate they call:

Mr. Reed of Rhode Island
Mr. Reid of Nevada

Does anyone know if they called Sherrod Brown or Scott Brown's name first when they were both in the Senate?

[ElectionsGuy]

There was also two Udalls and two Johnsons in the last Congress. I'm guessing they would call out the first name initial if that ever happened.

[Free Bird]

In the Senate they call:

Mr. Reed of Rhode Island
Mr. Reid of Nevada

Does anyone know if they called Sherrod Brown or Scott Brown's name first when they were both in the Senate?

Mr. Brown of Ohio
Mr. Brown of Massachusetts

What if they are from the SAME state?

[Panda Express]

In the Senate they call:

Mr. Reed of Rhode Island
Mr. Reid of Nevada

Does anyone know if they called Sherrod Brown or Scott Brown's name first when they were both in the Senate?

Mr. Brown of Ohio
Mr. Brown of Massachusetts

What if they are from the SAME state?

Then you describe them i.e.

Mr. Brown of Ohio (the ugly one)
Mr. Brown of Ohio (the cool one)

This is why I hope dan Sullivan of Alaska replaces Murkowski.

It'd be pretty anticlimatic tbh.

"Mr. Dan A. Sullivan
Mr. Dan S. Sullivan"

Or maybe they'd specify whether they're calling on the junior or senior senator.

[Joe Republic]

Probably "Mr. Jones, the senior senator" and "Mr. Jones, the junior senator", or they add the first name.

From 1845-47, Delaware's senators were both named Clayton.

[Rocky Rockefeller]

Briefly in 1946, Ohio had Robert Taft and Kingsley Taft.

[PJ]

Atlas has officially run out of interesting things to talk about.

[136or142]

The old T.V show Cheers did an opening bit off of this when two families with the same last name had reservations to the restaurant upstairs.

They addressed the issue by calling one of the families the "blubberbutts."

So let us say tht they have two homophonic names:

Mr. Reid of Michigan
Mr. Reed of Michigan

Identical surnames, but non-identical given names:

Mr. Bill Reed of Michigan
Mr. Ed Reed of Michigan

With identical given and surnames, but a different middle initial:

Mr. William S. Reed of Michigan
Mr. William T. Reed of Michigan

With identical given, middle, and surname:

Mr. William Samuel Reed of Michigan
Mr. Willim Stephen Reed of Michigan
