Modern commentators cite Democratic control of Congress as a reason that Nixon was ultimately forced to leave office in 1974. This might be true, although it ignores the bipartisan nature of the investigations into Watergate. A handful of Republican Senators such as Percy and Brooke called on Nixon to resign back in 1973, and it was Republican Senator Baker of Tennessee who famously asked, "What did the President know, and when did he know it?". Suppose that, as a result of the 1968 and 1972 elections, Republicans control both Houses of Congress in 1973. Would the Watergate hearings have played out differently? Would Nixon ultimately have been forced to resign from office?
