If you’re just rejoining us, here’s where things stand in the Senate and House. TL;DR: We still don’t know which party will control either one.
In the Senate, Democrats are guaranteed to have 48 seats, and Republicans are very likely to have 49 (counting Alaska, where a winner has not yet been projected but which will almost certainly stay in GOP hands). That means the party that wins two of Arizona, Georgia and Nevada will take control. Democrat Mark Kelly currently leads in Arizona, but Republican Adam Laxalt currently leads in Nevada. Georgia is going to a runoff election on Dec. 6.
In the House, Republicans are projected to win 211 seats, and Democrats are projected to win 194. We’re watching the roughly three dozen unprojected races closely, but obviously, Republicans need to win fewer of them in order to get to 218 and a majority.
