the specific numbers (I pulled 55% from memory) thanks to TahitiNut:
"Even though the Senate is currently 51 Republicans, 48 Democrats, and 1 Independent (Jeffords) ....
The Democratic Senators represent 55.1% of the population of the United States, 55.3% if you include Jeffords, and the Republicans only 44.7%.
(This is based on 2000 Census figures.)"
