Democrats took control of the U.S. Senate -- and both chambers of Congress -- Wednesday after Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock were projected to win their runoff races in Georgia.
The two Democrats expect to oust the Republicans in an outcome that would cost the GOP its majority in the Senate.
Democrats woke up Wednesday on the doorstep of pulling off a stunning sweep of two high-profile runoff races Tuesday in Georgia and flipping control of the U.S. Senate.
Democrat Raphael Warnock defeated GOP Sen. Kelly Loeffler, according to the Associated Press. If Democrat Jon Ossoff defeats Republican David Perdue, control of the Senate will flip.
The campaign of Jon Ossoff said early Wednesday that he expects to win one of Georgia's two U.S. Senate runoffs, which would flip the chamber over to Democratic control.
