PHOENIX∙ The Democrats won in the mid-term elections for the US Senate, giving relief to Joe Biden. After gaining control of the US Senate, the Democrats under the leadership of Biden have gone wrong with the custom of the opposition parties making gains in the mid-term elections. But the final result of the election to the 435-member House of Representatives will take some time to come out.
As of Saturday evening local time, the Republican Party had won 211 seats in the House of Representatives. 218 seats are required for majority. Democrats have won 205 seats so far.
The Senate came into the hands of the Democrats when they got Nevada. Democrats won 50 of the 100 seats in the Senate. The Republican Party has 49 seats. Here, Vice President Kamala Harris can cast her vote. When it does, it will favor the Democrats. Elections in Georgia are on December 6. If they can dominate here too, the Democrats will have a clear advantage. Even if he loses, the Senate will remain in the hands of Democrats because of Kamala Harris’ casting vote.
