Democratic Party hopes of regaining control of the Senate in 2004 were weakened yesterday with Democratic Florida Senator Bob Graham announcement that he would not seek re-election next year. Three other Southern Democratic senators have already announced their plans to retire next year. They are Zell Miller of Georgia, John Edwards of North Carolina and Ernest F. Hollings of South Carolina. There is also speculation that John Breaux of Louisiana may also not run.
