fiercely contested elections that resulted in a victory for the <a href="/wiki/Republican_Party_(United_States)" title="Republican Party (United States)">Republican Party</a>, which gained two seats and thus a narrow majority from the <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Party_(United_States)" title="Democratic Party (United States)">Democratic Party</a> in the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Senate"

The Senate seats up for election, known as <a href="/wiki/Classes_of_United_States_Senators" class="mw-redirect" title="Classes of United States Senators">class 2</a> Senate seats, were last up for regular election in <a href="/wiki/1996_United_States_Senate_elections" title="1996 United States Senate elections">1996</a>. The election cycle was held on November 5, 2002, almost 14 months after the <a href="/wiki/September_11,_2001_attacks" class="mw-redirect" title="September 11, 2001 attacks">September 11, 2001, attacks</a>. </p><p>Going into the election, Democrats had a 51–49 majority due to an Independent that caucused with them, however, this was reduced to a 50–49–1 plurality following the death of Democrat <a href="/wiki/Paul_Wellstone" title="Paul Wellstone">Paul Wellstone</a> and the appointment of a member of the <a href="/wiki/Independence_Party_of_Minnesota" class="mw-redirect" title="Independence Party of Minnesota">Independence Party of Minnesota</a> in his place. The Democrats had originally hoped to do well, as the party holding the <a href="/wiki/President_of_the_United_States" title="President of the United States">presidency</a> historically loses seats in midterm elections, and additionally, the Republicans had 20 seats up for election compared to 14 Democratic seats up for election. In addition, the Republicans had five open seats, while the Democrats and the <a href="/wiki/Independence_Party_of_Minnesota" class="mw-redirect" title="Independence Party of Minnesota">Independence Party of Minnesota</a> had one each. However, the Republicans were able to hold their 5 open seats and pick the one that was held by the IPM up, while the Democrats held their only open seat. Republicans also defeated 2 Democratic incumbents, while Democrats defeated 1 Republican incumbent. Together with gains made in the House of Representatives, this election was 1 of 3 mid-term elections in which the party in control of the White House did not lose Congressional seats (the others were <a href="/wiki/1934_United_States_Senate_elections" title="1934 United States Senate elections">1934</a> and <a href="/wiki/1998_United_States_Senate_elections" title="1998 United States Senate elections">1998</a>). </p><p><a href="/wiki/Trent_Lott" title="Trent Lott">Trent Lott</a> led the Senate Republicans through this election cycle and was due to become the new <a href="/wiki/Senate_Majority_Leader" class="mw-redirect" title="Senate Majority Leader">Senate Majority Leader</a> upon the retaking of control of the Senate by the Republicans. However, his controversial praise for <a href="/wiki/Strom_Thurmond" title="Strom Thurmond">Strom Thurmond</a>'s <a href="/wiki/1948_United_States_presidential_election" title="1948 United States presidential election">1948</a> <a href="/wiki/Racial_segregation_in_the_United_States" title="Racial segregation in the United States">segregationist</a> <a href="/wiki/Dixiecrat" title="Dixiecrat">Dixiecrat</a> presidential campaign at Thurmond's 100th birthday celebration led to Lott's stepping-down from Senate leadership, and resulted in Tennessee Republican <a href="/wiki/Bill_Frist" title="Bill Frist">Bill Frist</a> being selected as the new Senate Majority Leader instead. </p><p>This was the only election cycle ever where the party of the incumbent president gained new control of a house of Congress in a midterm election. This is also the last midterm election cycle where the party controlling the White House flipped a senate seat in a state they did not win in the preceding presidential election (in this case, Minnesota).

He said that he was against the death penalty for religious reasons, supported abortion rights, and supported greater government involvement in education. Graham attacked Sanders for these positions consistently throughout the campaign, and Sanders hit back at Graham for wanting to privatize <a href="/wiki/Social_Security_(United_States)" title="Social Security (United States)">Social Security</a>.
