 Washington D.C. Update
In his first personnel appointment, President-elect Obama has appointed
Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-IL) as his Chief of Staff. Emanuel, a member of
Congress since 2003, was a senior advisor to former President Bill Clinton from
1993 to 1998 and is the fourth highest ranking member of the Democratic
leadership in the House. Traditionally, appointments to the President's
Cabinet and senior White House management positions have been made in December
and January, right up until Inauguration Day on January 20th, 2009. This year,
it is widely believed that President-elect Obama will announce his appointments
for many of these positions before the end of November, including key cabinet
positions at the Treasury Department and the Defense Department.
In the races for US Senate, Democrats have won five additional Senate seats for a majority of 57-40.
Two races remain undecided- a runoff election will be held in Georgia
on Dec. 2nd between the Republican incumbent and his Democrat
challenger, and the close Minnesota Senate race heading for a recount,
with the Democrat challenger trailing by only 206 votes. In the races for the US House of Representatives Democrats have won 255 seats to the Republicans 174 seats.
