has won reelection in Georgia, the Associated Press reports, giving the Democrats a 51-49 majority in the U.S. Senate., whose campaign was beset by allegations that he paid two women to have abortions.
Though Democrats were already guaranteed to hold onto control of the Senate, the extra seat gives them some breathing room, and should make it easier to pass appointments out of Senate committees. Georgia, until recently a solidly red state, is now set to be represented by two Democrats in the Senate for at least four more years.
Walker, a former NFL running back who played college football for the Georgia Bulldogs NCAA team, endorsed former President Donald Trump during both of his presidential campaigns in 2016 and 2020 and spoke on Trump’s behalf at the 2020 Republican National Convention.
