More than 940,000 requests for mail-in ballots have been made in Georgia for the Jan. 5 U.S. Senate runoff elections, officials said on Nov. 30.
The two Senate runoffs will determine whether Republicans can maintain a majority in the chamber. Republicans have 50 Senate seats in the next Congress, with the two seats to be decided. Democrats would need to win both runoff elections and the presidency to flip control of the Senate.
