Alabama Senate election winner due to be certified in late December Posted: 18 Nov 2017 11:13 PM PST The outcome of Alabama's Dec. 12 U.S. Senate election probably will not be certified until Dec. 26 at the earliest, a state official said on Friday, making it unlikely the race will affect major year-end legislation in Congress including Republican tax cuts. Republicans hold a slim 52-48 majority in the Senate. A victory by Democrat Doug Jones over Republican Roy Moore, who is facing sexual misconduct allegations, in the Alabama race would cut that margin to 51-49, making it harder for President Donald Trump's party to win congressional passage of major legislation.

Bill Clinton should have resigned over Monica Lewinsky affair, Democratic senator says Posted: 18 Nov 2017 06:17 PM PST Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand says that, if Bill Clinton's sex scandal were to occur in modern times, it would be appropriate for him to have resigned from his position. Ms Gillibrand made the statement during an interview with the New York Times, where she was discussing recent allegations that Senator Al Franken groped and forcibly kissed a radio host in 2006. "Yes, I think that is the appropriate response," Ms Gillibrand said after a long pause when asked directly if Mr Clinton should have resigned after his inappropriate relationship with a White House intern was discovered two decades ago.
