Dems Take Control of Senate as Ossoff Is Declared Winner in GA
Dems Take Control of Senate, as Ossoff Is Declared Winner in GA.
Democrat Jon Ossoff defeated
Republican Senator David Perdue in one of
two runoff elections for the U.S. Senate seats of GA.
Ossoff's victory was announced amid the
chaos at the U.S. Capitol building ...
... in which the rioting of a pro-Trump mob shut down
the acceptance of the Electoral College results.
The other Democratic winner of the day
was Rev. Raphael Warnock, who defeated
Republican Senator Kelly Loeffler.
Warnock is the first Black Democratic Senator
ever to be elected in a Southern U.S. state.
The election results mean that Democrats have
obtained a slim majority in the Senate.
With a 50-50 tally of Republican and Democratic Senators,
Democratic Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will act
as the tie-breaking vote once she is sworn in.
Following Trump's single term as president,
Democrats now have control of the
White House and both Houses of Congress
