United States Senate Elections, 1990 (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Elections to one-third of the seats in the United States Senate were held on Tuesday, November 6, 1990. The Democratic Party increased its majority with a net gain of one seat from the Republicans. This was in keeping with the trend that the party of the President often loses seats in a midterm election. This election coincided with the Mid-Term of President George H.W. BushOnly one seat actually changed parties in this election, when Paul Wellstone defeated incumbent Rudy Boschwitz (R-MN). Later, the Democrats gained a 57th seat when Harris Wofford won a special election to replace H. John Heinz III (R-PA), who had died in a plane crash.
