According to local rules in the state of Georgia, if running candidates fail to reach the 50 percent mark, a runoff election is required to settle the race.

The result in the state comes at a time when the schism between Democrats and Republicans is widening even further, while the race for control of the senate is becoming more fierce where both parties are fighting to a very slim majority in the Upper House of the US Congress.

As the battle between the two ruling parties intensifies, a surprising turn of events came today in the state of Pennsylvania after Democratic candidate John Fetterman snatched the Senate seat from his Republican opponent Dr. Mehmet Oz after the position previously belonged to Republican Senator Pat Toomey.
