November 9, 2000 - The unsettled Presidential race is commanding the most media attention, but who controls Congress also merits watching. Republicans retained control of the US Senate in Tuesday's elections, but their 8-seat majority has almost disappeared. In fact, the Senate could be split 50-50 for the first time in over a century. That will happen if democrat Maria Cantwell wins in Washington, where the race is still too close to call. The spilt would also occur if Al Gore loses the presidency, sending his running mate Joseph Lieberman back to the Senate. Joining us now to talk about how the new Senate could be different from the old one is Minnesota's senior Senator, Democrat Paul Wellstone. Minnesota Senator Paul Wellstone.
