Ok some searches on Wikipedia have shown that the elections are usually in the first week of November on even years, but on odd years the edge cases of retirement and death are all over the place, so It probably isn't something to do for now, but would be really cool for 2014 (but they will probably be elected on the same day as the presidential candidates). So maybe do for 2014?
