I disagree with the previous answerer Bush SR. only served one term not two. Thomas Jefferson was the only person to serve one term as vice president [John Adams 1797-1801] and two terms as president, 1801 to 1809.

Senators are elected by popular vote by the people of the state they represent.  Each Senator holds office for a six-year term.  Except in rare cases where a Senate seat has become vacant mid-term (because of a death or resignation), a state does not have elections for both seats in the same year.

Senators serve six-year terms. John Kerry's last re-election to the Senate was in 2002, so he was still in mid-term when he ran for President 2 years ago. Yes, he's still in the Senate. Most Senators who ran for President, while in the middle of their term, and lost remained in the Senate.\n\nBut Kerry's running mate, John Edwards of North Carolina, was a Senator who had been elected in 1998, so his 6-year term was ending when he ran for the ticket in 2004. Per the law of North Carolina, he could not run for re-election to the Senate while also simultaneously running on the national ticket. So Edwards is no longer in the Senate.\n\nThe law is not the same in all states. A couple of states in which a candidate can both run on the Presidential ticket and run for U.S. Senate in the very same election are Connecticut and Texas. Six years ago, Joe Lieberman ran for re-election to the Senate at the same time he was Al Gore's running-mate. Obviously, Lieberman won re-election to the Senate, but did not win the national election. In the past, two Senators who represented Texas ran both for re-election to the Senate and also were running-mates on the national ticket at the same time: Lyndon B. Johnson in 1960 and Lloyd Bentsen in 1988.\n\nBy mentioning Johnson, I can now segue into another one of your questions. When Johnson was re-elected to the Senate and elected Vice President at the same time in 1960, he obviously had to resign from the Senate before he was sworn in as Veep. That meant his seat was then vacant.\n\nAnytime vacancies occur in a seat for the U.S. Senate, how the vacancy gets filled depends on the law of the state. There is no national law directing the subject. In most states, the Governor has the power to appoint a new Senator to fill the vacancy. And if the vacancy occurred with only 2 years left in the term or less, then that appointee will serve the remainder of that term. Oftentimes, the vacancy occurs with more than 2 years left, in which case the state will schedule a special election so that the voters can determine who will serve the remainder of the term.\n\nHowever, in some states the Governor does not have the power to appoint anyone to fill a vacancy. In those states the seat will simply remain vacant until a special election is held. Oklahoma and Oregon are two examples of that. In 1995, Republican Senator Bob Packwood resigned in mid-term with 3 1/2 years left of his term. His seat remained vacant for a few months while the legislature authorized a special election to be held. When Ron Wyden won that special election, he then held the seat for the remaining 3 years of the term originally begun by Packwood.

one more!  There are 2 senators for every state, and so there are 100 senators.  There is at lease one independent...Lucky Joe Lieberman, so they just need 50.

The President and the Vice-President are the only officials elected by the entire country. However, there are requirements for holding either of these positions. In order to be elected, one must be at least 35 years old. Also, each candidate must be a natural-born U.S. citizen and have lived in the U.S. for at least 14 years.\n\nWhen elected, the President serves a term of four years. At most, a President may serve two terms.\n\nNOTE: Before 1951, the President could serve as many terms as he wanted. However, every President had followed George Washington’s example of stepping down after two terms. Franklin D. Roosevelt broke with tradition. Roosevelt successfully ran for office four times. Early in his fourth term, in 1945, he died. Six years later, Congress passed the 22nd Amendment, which limits Presidents to two terms.\n\nThe President can be removed from office through the process of impeachment. If the House of Representatives feel that the President has committed acts of "Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors" they can impeach him with a majority vote. An impeachment is very similar to a legal indictment. It is not a conviction, however, and not enough to remove the President from office alone.\n\nThe case then goes to the Senate. Overseen by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, the Senate reviews the case and votes whether or not to convict the President. If they vote in favor of conviction by a two-thirds margin, then the President is removed from office.

There are 435 members of the US House of Representatives each representing a district and each serving a two year term concluding in November 2006. House of representatives seats are distributed amongst the states according to population although each state must have at least one.\n\nThere are 100 Senators, 2 per state, each serving for six years. The elections are staggered so that approximately a third of the Senate faces election at any one time. The Senators elected in 2000 face re-election in 2006. The Senators elected in 2002 face re-election in 2008 and the Senators elected in 2004 face re-election in 2010. If a Senator is appointed to fill a vacancy, he or she faces a special election at the next election and serves the remainder of his predecessors term after which they face a normal election.
