Senator Stevens a Senator no more

The close of a long Governmental career has been foretold by the voters in Alaska. Senator Ted Stevens, who has been at the forefrontof Alaskan political machine since the time before Alaska’s statehood has lost his reelection bid. In the end the longest serving Republican Senator in history lost his seat as voters lost confidence in him and question his moral character over his conviction on several federal felony counts. Senator Stevens has held office since the time of Lyndon Johnson’s administration and that may also have played into Stevens loss, as many Alaskans have joined with the majority of its lower 48 counterparts in looking for a change in direction and governmental approach.

Senator Ted Stevens defeat puts the Democrat President-Elect that much closer to a broad Democrat control. The Senate now sits with in two seats of the possible 60 seat filibuster proof majority. The 58 controlling seats do count two Independents that generally vote Democrat.

Democrat Mark Begich, who has claimed a narrow victory Tuesday after the tally of remaining ballots showed him holding a 3,724-vote edge over Senator Stevens. “Alaska has been in the midst of a generational shift — you could see it,” said Begich, the current Anchorage mayor and now Senator Elect.
