Chafee meets Whitehouse today to pass torch

PROVIDENCE -- With less than a month left in his term as a U.S. senator, Lincoln Chafee will meet this afternoon with the Democrat who cost him his job.

Chafee and Senator-elect Sheldon Whitehouse plan to hold a transition meeting at Chafee's Westminster Street office at 3:15 p.m.

Chafee "wants to make certain that his constituents' needs are met during the change in office and has vowed to do what he can to be sure that the transition is a smooth one," according to an announcement released today by Chafee's office.

The meeting will be private, according to Chafee's office, but both men will pose for pictures together afterward.
