In the United States Senate, the Republicans had a net gain of six seats. The thirteen new Republican Senators are: John Boozman (AR), Marco Rubio (FL), Mark Kirk (IL), Dan Coats (IN), Jerry Moran (KS), Rand Paul (KY), Roy Blunt (MO), John Hoeven (ND), Kelly Ayotte (NH), Rob Portman (OH), Pat Toomey (PA), Mike Lee (UT), and Ron Johnson (WI). The Democrats have three new Senators: Richard Blumenthal (CT), Chris Coons (DE), and Joe Manchin (WV). There will be 47 Republican Senators in the 112th Congress. In the House of Representatives, the Republicans picked up 63 seats. The ranks of Democrats defeated include three committee chairmen: Jim Oberstar (Transportation & Infrastructure), John Spratt (Budget), and Ike Skelton (Armed Services). The House Republican gains were spread across the country with concentrations in the Mid-Atlantic and Mid-West area. New York led the country with six GOP pick-ups. Ohio and Pennsylvania each had five. Florida and Illinois had four, and Tennessee, Texas and Virginia had three each. States with two Republican net gains include Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Indiana, Michigan, Mississippi, New Hampshire and Wisconsin. States with one GOP pick-up include Alabama, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, South Carolina, South Dakota, Washington, and West Virginia. The Democrats offset these losses with three pick-ups, one each in Louisiana, Delaware, and Hawaii. ABOUT THE 2010 ELECTION GUIDE K&L Gates is providing this guide to help you better understand and keep track of the changes in Congress. It provides a starting point for assessing the coming changes in House and Senate Committee and Subcommittee memberships. The following are included within this guide: All new Members of Congress are listed alphabetically, by state and district along with links to the campaign websites which contain biographical information. Outgoing Members of Congress are listed, with the reasons for their departures. Complete delegations of each state are included, with new Members of the House highlighted and their predecessors shown. Seats that switched parties are highlighted in red for Republican pick-ups and blue for Democratic pick-ups. Races that are too close to call are marked with an asterisk and highlighted gray. The year of the next election is shown for each Senator (e.g., Senators whose year of next election is 2016 were elected or reelected in 2010). Roster lists for each full Committee and Subcommittee from the departing 111th Congress are included; with nonreturning members lined out and projected full Committee House Chairmen noted. @ 2010 K&L Gates LLP Page 2 NEW MEMBERS OF THE SENATE (16) Republicans (13) Democrats (3) Kelly Ayotte (NH) Richard Blumenthal (CT) http://www.ayotteforsenate.com/ http://www.richardblumenthal.com/ John Boozman (AR) Chris Coons (DE) http://www.boozmanforarkansas.com/ http://www.chriscoons.com/ Roy Blunt (MO) Joe Manchin III (WV) http://www.royblunt.com/ http://www.governormanchin.com/ Dan Coats (IN) http://www.coatsforindiana.com/ John Hoeven (ND) http://www.hoevenforsenate.com/ Ron Johnson (WI) http://ronjohnsonforsenate.com/home/ Mark Kirk (IL) http://www.kirkforsenate.com/ Mike Lee (UT) http://www.mikelee2010.com/ Jerry Moran (KA) http://www.moranforkansas.com/ Rand Paul (KY) http://www.randpaul2010.com/ Rob Portman (OH) http://www.robportman.com/ Marco Rubio (FL) http://www.marcorubio.com/ Patrick J.
