  • the outcome of the battle for control of the Senate, including races in Iowa, Colorado, Kansas, and Alaska;

  • the role of independents in elections, particularly in this era of partisan polarization;

  • the influence of record campaign spending on election outcomes; and

  • whether supporting President Obama’s major programs helped or hurt members of Congress.
