Senate trial: In mid-January, House Republicans will argue their two impeachment charges against President Clnton before senators sitting as jurors. Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist will preside.
The vote: A two-thirds Senate majority is needed to convict and remove the president from office.
Witnesses: Whether the entire Senate or a panel will hear witnesses is undecided.
Duration: Estimates of trial length vary from three days to weeks or months. The Senate could also drop the charges at any time and pursue other options, such as censure.
What if? If the president is ousted, Vice President Gore would be sworn in as president and would select a vice president (subject to congressional approval).
