The United States Senate election of 1806 and 1807 were elections that had the Democratic-Republican Party increase its overwhelming control of the Senate by one additional Senator. The Federalists went into the elections with such a small share of Senate seats (7 out of 34, or 21%) that even if they had won every election, they would have still remained a minority caucus. As it was, however, they lost one of the two seats they were defending and picked up no gains from their opponents. As these elections were prior to ratification of the seventeenth amendment, Senators were chosen by state legislatures. ==Senate Party Division, 10th Congress (1807–1809)== * Majority Party: Democratic-Republican (28) * Minority Party: Federalist (6) * Other Parties: 0 * Total Seats: 34 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「United States Senate elections, 1806 and 1807」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
