The outcomes of (nikoli) closely watch contests will determine political control in the senate during the first two years of President-elect Joe Biden's term in the White House.

Currently, Republicans controlled the 100 seat Senate with a 52-48 advantage needing to win one of the two Georgia contests to maintain their advantage and act as a bulwark1 against Biden legislative2 proposals after he is inaugurated on January 20th.
