The US presidential election last year, but the Senate election is not over.

This is because there was no candidate with a majority vote in Georgia, which was also one of the presidential battlefields.

The final voting has begun today, and here, the fate of the Democratic Party and the Republican Party will be divided.

The runoff vote for two federal senators from the state of Georgia went well.

In the federal parliamentary elections held on November 3 of last year, the Republican Party and the Democratic Party showed dominance one by one, but there were no majority votes under state law, so the final ballot was held.

In this election, if the Republican Party secures even one seat, the majority will remain, but if both seats are occupied by the Democrats, the Democratic Party will take over the Senate with the vice president’s casting boat event.

Currently, the Republican Party holds 50 seats in the Senate and the Democrats have 48 seats.

If the Democratic Party dominates the Senate, it can support the stable administration of the Biden administration.

Conversely, if the Republican Party retains the majority, it can hold a strong hold on the Democratic government.

On the eve of the election, President Trump and President-elect Biden went to Georgia to appeal for support from the party candidate.

Georgia, in the southeastern United States, has been regarded as a garden for the Republican Party, but in the 11th and 3rd presidential elections last year, elect Joe Biden won a mere 10,000 votes.

In the polls just before the final vote, the Democratic Party candidates showed an edge within the margin of error.

The 3 million pre-voters, 60% of the total votes in the last presidential election, are also considered a boon to the Democratic Party.

At the end of the election, it is revealed that President Trump has made a “pressure call” to the Georgian state secretary regarding “the results of the presidential elections”, and how it will affect the voters’ votes.
