I'm going to include some details I missed in the inaugural post that I will include in the re-write.
Senator Paul Simon (D-IL) to run for Re-Election to the United States Senate - April 7th, 1995
Simon Comfortably Defeats State Representative Al Salvi (R), Winning Third Term - November 5th, 1996
Carol Moseley Braun to not Seek Re-Election - March 11th, 1997
After a low showing by many major polls for the United States Senate Election in Illinois of 1998, Incumbent Senator Carol Moseley Braun decided against running for re-election, opting to retire. That same week, Congressman Dick Durbin of Illinois' 20th Congressional District announced his candidacy to run for Braun's Senate seat. Durbin is expected to win the Democratic Party's Primary in August of next year, 1998.Simon Comfortably Defeats State Representative Al Salvi (R), Winning Third Term - November 5th, 1996

February 2th 2000:At the MSNBC GOP debate in Florida Ron Paul makes some noise after saying that the Kosovo War was a mistake and that President Clinton should of been impeached because of war crimes he committed there.
This Timeline is not dead yet! Here are some more details I missed in the inaugural post that I will include in my re-write (they will serve for the plot development later):
Evan Bayh, son of Former Senator Birch Bayh (D-IN), Elected to the United States House of Representatives-November 6th, 1984
Evan Bayh, son of Former United States Senator Birch Bayh, was elected to the United States House of Representatives from Indiana's 7th Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives Elections of 1984, unseating longtime incumbent Representative John T. Myers. Some speculate that Congressman Bayh intends to challenge Senator Dan Quayle, hoping to win back his father's Senate seat.Representative Evan Bayh (D) Elected to United States Senate, Defeats Dan Coats (R-Incumbent)-November 3rd, 1992
Congressman Evan Bayh, re-elected to the United States House of Representatives in 1986, 1988, and 1990, decided he would run for his father's Senate seat in the United States Senate Election in Indiana of 1992, challenging incumbent Senator Dan Coats. Bayh effectively tied Coats to Vice President Dan Quayle and the faltering Bush Administration. In one of the closest United States Senate Elections in Indiana's history, Congressman Bayh managed to defeat Senator Coats by less than five percent. Bayh's victory is largely attributed to 1992 being a landslide year for the Democratic Party.
Senator Evan Bayh (D) Wins Re-Election to United States Senate, Defeats Paul Helmke (R)-November 3rd, 1998
In the United States Senate Election in Indiana of 1998, Incumbent Senator Evan Bayh won easy re-election over Fort Wayne Mayor Paul Helmke. Bayh's comfortable victory was in part due to the unpopularity of President Bill Clinton's Impeachment Trial (almost as OTL).
