Snowe's Projected Success
November 7, 2006
From Technology Daily's Brittany Ballenstedt: NBC's projected results indicate that Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, will serve a third term after defeating Democrat Jean Hay Bright. In the 109th Congress, Snowe was a contributor to massive telecommunications legislation sponsored by Ted Stevens, R-Alaska. Snowe attached a strong network neutrality amendment to the bill that failed in the Commerce Committee in July. Net neutrality is slated to be a major issue in the next Congress as partisan debate has emerged over the issue in recent months. Democrats generally favor network neutrality, but most Republicans oppose the concept.
