Senate still up in the air: Republican Party beats Democratic Party by one senator
Georgia will have a second round on Dec. 6.
The dispute for control of the Senate continues. Results give the Republican Party one more senator than the Democratic Party. Right now, the GOP would have 49 senators to the Democrats' 48.
In Nevada, Republican candidate Adam Laxalt lost the seat from incumbent Senator Catherine Cortez Masto of the Democratic Party. With 98% of the vote counted, Laxalt would obtain 48% of support to Cortez Masto's 48.9%.
With 99% of the vote completed in Arizona, Democratic challenger Mark Kelly would retain his Senate seat (51.4%) and defeat Republican candidate Blake Masters (46.5%).
In Alaska the canvass has been completed and the Republican Party win the seat. Kelly Tshibaka and Lisa Murkowski - the two GOP candidates - are vying for the Alaskan state senate seat and Murkowski won with 53.7% of the votes.
Second round in Georgia
Georgia voters will have to go to the polls on December 6. Candidates Raphael Warnock and Herschel Walker, from the Democratic and Republican Parties respectively, did not pass the 50% threshold required to become a senator. Georgian law states that in order to win office, a candidate must obtain at least 50.01% of the votes.
The difference in support between the two candidates was negligible. Warnock obtained 49.42% of the votes while Walker received 48.52% of the votes.
