 United States Senate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Control of Senate committees is almost always by seniority within the majority party, but there is now a four-term limit.
Senators serve for terms of six years; the terms are staggered so that approximately one-third of the Senate is up for election every two years: each time there are elections in about 33 states for one of the two seats.
Senators are elected by their state as a whole; if both Senate seats are contested in one election year, the elections will be separate and all voters in the state will cast votes for one candidate in each of the two races.
