Bush's presidency. House members were elected in the 2002 general election on November 5, 2002. Senators were elected in three classes in the 1998 general election on November 3, 1998, 2000 general election on November 7, 2000, or 2002 general election on November 5, 2002. The apportionment of seats in the House of Representatives was based on the 2000 United States census. This is the most recent Congress to have a Democratic senator from South Carolina, Fritz Hollings, who retired at the end of the Congress. Both chambers had a Republican majority, with the Republicans slightly increasing their edge in the House, and regaining control of the Senate, after party control had switched back and forth during the 107th Congress due to various factors. With President Bush, this gave the Republicans an overall federal government trifecta. 2 Major events 2003 in the United States 2004 in the United States 2005 in the United States February 1, 2003: Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated during reentry March 20, 2003: 2003 invasion of Iraq began April 14, 2003: Human Genome Project was completed July 14, 2003: CIA leak scandal began May 17, 2004: Same-sex marriage began in Massachusetts July 22, 2004: 9/11 Commission issued an initial report of its findings September 13, 2004: expiration of the Federal Assault Weapons Ban November 2, 2004: 2004 United States presidential election: George W.
