Both of Georgia’s Senate seats are still up for grabs and, as a result, so is control of the Senate. More than 940,000 mail-in ballots have been requested in Georgia for the runoff election that will decide which party controls the Senate.
Those seats will be decided in a runoff election on January 5th, with Republican incumbent David Perdue squaring off against Democrat John Ossof for Purdue’s seat and Republican Kelly Loeffler up against Raphael Warnock for the seat vacated by the death of John Lewis.
Should both of the Democratic Senate candidates ultimately win their elections, the United States Senate would have 50 Republicans and 50 Democrats and a Vice President Kamala Harris (if she is ultimately sworn in) would be the tie-breaker.
