The Senate Could Have 3 Independents

New York Times: “If Greg Orman wins in Kansas, there will be three officially independent senators, an unprecedented moment, except for one thing: Bernie Sanders, the independent from Vermont is not a centrist but a liberal to the left of most Democrats. Mr. Orman could make a powerful ally for the other independent, Angus King of Maine, who could try to build a voting block in the center that would influence both parties. Both Mr. Orman and Mr. King, who currently caucuses with Democrats, have hinted that they are open to aligning with whichever party is in the majority.”
