Looking ahead to next year's Senate race

Today’s General Election serves as the kick-off for the May 2010 Democratic primary for U.S. Senate. U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter, who recently jumped from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party, faces primary challenges from four candidates. Former U.S. Rep. Pat Toomey, who almost unseated Specter in a Republican primary in 2004, is expected to be his party’s nominee for the November 2010 General Election. Who will win the Democratic Primary?
Arlen Specter, the political survivor who switched from Republican to Democrat
