The democrats will appoint a single person to replace her. There won't be a "collective committee".
And the money spent recalling her wasn't wasted. She should've been ousted if for no other reason than the awful things she said during the gun bill hearings. Democrats spent money, too, and what do they have to show for it? Another senator basically thrown out against her will.
I see this as a great reward to the people that worked hard and contributed to her forced resignation. It's also good for the state. Again...it isn't the best possible outcome but it certainly isn't the worst, either.
ETA: Besides... Everyone knew her resigning was certain if the signature quota was reached because there was zero chance the dems would risk losing control of the senate. If that's not a victory, but it's a near-certain outcome (for obvious reasons), then why even bother?
