The pieces are starting to fall into place in the Senate. The networks are projecting that Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez will defend his seat in New Jersey and that Republican Sen. Rick Santorum will lose in Pennsylvania.

The Democrats believe that votes from much of Northern Virginia -- an area friendly for Webb -- have not been counted yet. With a handful of precincts counted, Republican Sen. Mike DeWine is trailing Democratic challenger Sherrod Brown in Ohio, and Republican Bob Corker is leading Democrat Harold Ford Jr. in Tennessee.
