WATCH for more than flowers, food and friends in the House and Senate chambers at 10 a.m. Wednesday. The opening of the Legislature at the State Capitol also signals the start of a critically important state election season.

The 41 Democrats in the 51-member House and the 20 Democrats in the 25-member Senate see the session as a continuation of their majority power, which has stretched unbroken since statehood in 1959.

But all 51 House members and 11 senators are up for election, along with Gov. Linda Lingle.

Democrats will look to the session to continue to drive home the differences between their party and the GOP governor.

Senate President Robert Bunda says it will be critical for the Democrats to hold to a "common agenda."

Key Democratic issues, such as the price cap on the wholesale price of gasoline, are areas that Bunda says the Democrats cannot waiver.

"The majority has said this is going to be policy, in reference to state energy policy," Bunda said.

Gov. Lingle, who campaigned against the gas cap four years ago, is again calling for a repeal of the plan.

Both Republicans and Democrats are predicting that the state Legislature will remain in Democratic hands after the November elections, but how individual legislators compete is at issue.

Both houses face challenges to leadership. Sen. Robert Bunda was elected president in 2001 after former president Norman Mizuguchi declined to run for re-election in 2000. Bunda's position at the head of a coalition was tested at the end of the session last year when a resolution passed regarding Senate rules.

The vote was opposed by Bunda's own faction, and it served as something of a test vote of confidence on Bunda's leadership.

With the defeat of two supporters -- former Sens. Cal Kawamoto and Melodie Aduja in 2004 -- Bunda has spent time during the interim trying to shore up his position.

Rivals now include Senate Vice President Donna Kim and Senate Judiciary Chairwoman Colleen Hanabusa. But no one has put together a coalition with the 13 votes needed to defeat Bunda's presidency.

Instead, Bunda's adversaries are saying privately that they expect to support new Democratic candidates in the Senate who would oppose Bunda's Senate presidency in 2007.

Bunda is also expected to help candidates or incumbents who would support him, if the 24-year legislative veteran decides to seek the presidency again in 2007.

In the House, Calvin Say has represented the Palolo-St. Louis Heights area since 1976, and served as House Speaker since 1999, when he ousted Maui Democrat Joe Souki. After last year's election, Say survived a threat to his leadership as younger Democrats led by Reps. Scott Saiki and Brian Schatz attempted to take over.

Under Say's leadership, the Democrats in the House have gone from 32 to 41 -- a serious defeat for Republican Lingle. The governor's chances of positioning bills for debate on the House floor were hurt in the 2004 election when the number of GOP representatives fell below the one-third needed to call for debate.

Now House GOP leader Lynn Finnegan is hoping the 2006 election will bring in more Republicans.

"What we are trying to do is make government a better process, and you can do that by having more of a balance in the House. It will mean better debate, and we will be able to force members to talk about issues," Finnegan said.

Before she can start increasing GOP numbers, Finnegan has to know who she has in the House. That was a mystery as of yesterday, as Lingle had not yet appointed a Republican to fill the vacancy created when Rep. Galen Fox resigned after his federal conviction for fondling an airline passenger.

Lingle yesterday said she hoped to be able to fill the Waikiki House seat before opening day.
