Notes: Sen. Richard Shelby (R), first elected as a Democrat in 1986,
won a fifth term, easily defeating attorney William G. Barnes (D).  The race was not competitive.  According to Open Secrets, the Shelby campaign spent $2.6 million compared to less than $6,000 for the Barnes campaign.  Indeed, the Shelby campaign finished with $17.2 million in cash on hand, by far the largest closing cash  total of the 2010 Senate campaigns (>).
