Rhode Island will have an entirely Democratic congressional delegation as of January.

The two Democratic members of the U.S. House easily won re-election.

The Republican, who had represented Rhode Island in the U.S. Senate for four years, will not be returning. Flo Jonic reports on the victory of Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse over incumbent Lincoln Chafee.
