Suppose that the Senate has the following breakdown in representation: 49 Democrats, 49 Republicans, and 2 Independents. Further, suppose that all Democrats and Republicans vote along party lines. Assuming that a majority is needed to pass a bill, explain why the 2 Independents, despite holding only 2% of the Senate seats, effectively hold power equal to that of either of the large parties. For this paper, thoroughly explain why the Independents hold the power. Provide a brief example of how the 2 Independents might need to vote to help demonstrate your understanding of the situation.
