Governor to Testify Before Impeachment Trial

On Thursday, Governor Blagojevich will testify before the Illinois State Senate, holding a trial on whether to remove the governor from office.

Gov. Blagojevich, who has said in public interviews he feels the Senate Trial is a Sham, and that "the fix is in" to remove him -- will not be cross-examined by senators.

A vote on whether to remove Blagojevich as Illinois governor could come as early as Thursday evening, depending upon how long senators wish to deliberate on the matter.

Should the senate vote to remove Blagojevich, it is expected that Lt. Gov Quinn, would be sworn-in as Illinois' Governor shortly after Blagojevich is removed from office.
