Senate Republicans have claimed the majority in the 119th Congress.
Gov. Jim Justice, R-W.Va., quickly flipped the Mountain State’s Senate seat Tuesday night, putting the Democrats’ current 51-49 margin in jeopardy and making it so only one more Senate pickup would put Republicans in the driver’s seat starting in January.
The next flip from Democrat-to-Republican came when The Associated Press called Ohio in favor of Bernie Moreno, defeating incumbent Democrat Sherrod Brown.
