Location
The candy desk is not a specific desk in the Senate Chamber, but instead whichever desk the senators choose to use becomes the candy desk when it is placed in the correct location and filled with sweets. The desk's location has remained static since at least the 97th Congress. It is next to the eastern door to the senate chamber. Most senators enter the chamber through this door, which is adjacent to elevators leading to one of the stops on the United States Capitol subway system. The desk is the first desk on the right, or Republican, side, and is in the last row of desks. Traditionally, the candy desk is always on the Republican side of the Senate Chamber and is used by a Republican senator. The desk is currently occupied by Illinois Senator Mark Kirk, who began his stay in 2011.
