Description | Former Indiana Gov. Evan Bayh on Tuesday night handily won the U.S. Senate seat his father, Birch, occupied in the 1970s. By defeating Republican Fort Wayne Mayor Paul Helmke, the 42-year-old Bayh presented the Democrats with their first Senate seat in Indiana since 1974.
Pre-election day polls showed the former two-term governor ahead of Helmke by a staggering 25 points.
