Democrats retain control of the Senate thanks to Cortez Masto’s Nevada victory

Date:

The second round on December 6 in Georgia will only decide whether the Democratic formation extends its lead

Democrats will retain control of the Senate after Catherine Cortez Masto was declared the winner this Saturday in Nevada against Republican Adam Laxalt, so the runoff election on Dec. 6 in Georgia will only decide if the Democratic formation extends its lead once the majority is secured.

The Nevada state investigation has come to an end after several days of recounting the mail-in votes, which ultimately favored Cortez Masto and gave him victory, after garnering 48 percent of the vote, according to reports of the American newspaper ‘Politico’.

On the other hand, the victory of US President Joe Biden’s party has not been total in the state of Nevada since Republican nominee Joe Lombardo took control of the governorship after toppling Democrat Steve Sisolak.

Masto’s victory follows that of Mark Kelly, who took the seat in Arizona after a long battle that put the Democratic party just one seat away from retaining control of the First House, an advantage that has come to fruition this Saturday. confirmed with victory in Nevada. In Arizona, however, the dispute between the two candidates for governor, Republican Kari Lake and Democrat Katie Hobbs, is not yet closed.
