Senate control remains in flux and will be a determinative factor in a Biden Administration Agenda.
Both parties are preparing for runoffs in Georgia’s two Senate seats on January 5, 2021.
For Democrats to lead the Senate, they need to win both Georgia runoff races which would result in a 50-50 Senate; Vice President Kamala Harris would be the tie vote.
