WASHINGTON D.C. — Democrats will maintain control of the U.S. Senate, NBC News reports.
The battle for the Senate seems to have ended after Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada won her reelection against her Republican opponent Adam Laxalt. Her projection to win that race was announced Saturday.
Sen. Mark Kelly also claimed a crucial victory for the Democrats in the battle for the Senate Friday evening when he won in the state of Arizona.
Democrats will hold at least 50 seats come 2023, NBC News reports.
It is still unclear which party will wield control over the House of Representatives, with results still too close to call.
