New Wikipedia has the lists.
[link|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_House_election%2C_2006_complete_list|2006 House Races].

[link|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Senate_election%2C_2006|2006 Senate Races].

I don't have the time to go through the ~ 468-469 names.

We hear about critics of the Iraq war who are veterans running for Congress or the Senate because it's more "newsworthy" than when, oh, I don't know, another millionaire decides to buy his own seat. I would suspect that significantly less than half of the candidates running against incumbents are veterans.

Cheers,
Scott.

New The interesting number is
of those candidates running for congress that are recent veterans - what percentage are running as Democrats?

So far as I can tell - most of them.
