Will Ted Stevens be expelled from the Senate Republican Conference on Tues 11/18?

Settled as Vote is not taken on 11/18/ other outcome

Sen. DeMint (R-SC) has scheduled a vote on Tuesday Nov. 18 to expel Sen. Stevens from the Republican Conference. Many Senators have not expressed opinions on the matter, with Minority Leader McConnell being unusually mum. This vote is not contingent on the outcome of the Alaska Senate race-- it will take effect in the "lame duck" session immediately.
