A Democratic Congress
Tester has been holding a big lead since polls closed in Montana. Webb is still up by 2,000 in Virginia.
If those results hold, that means a tied Senate. We're still waiting on Missouri. And the networks haven't called Tennessee yet, even though Corker still has a 3 point lead.
So what happens with a Democratic House and a tied or nearly tied Senate? I'm guessing lots of subpoena fights -- Democrats looking for information from the Bush administration, and the White House fighting them all the way to the Supreme Court.
Written and compiled by staff writers and editors, GOVERNING View is an on-the-ground, and sometimes behind-the-scenes, look at the topics we're covering in print and online. From notes on what's up in statehouses, county courthouses and city halls, to encounters with people, places and things, GOVERNING View is a window into the side of state and local government you don't always see.
