"Sen.-elect Mark Kirk (R-Ill.), Sen.-elect Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Sen.-elect Chris Coons (D-Del.) will take office immediately when senators return to Washington after the election.'
"Kirk will give Republicans control of 42 seats during the lame-duck session, meaning that Democrats will now have to win over at least two GOP votes to pass end-of-year agenda items."
