Democrats cement control of US Senate after Georgia victory - BBC News
Democrats have cemented their control of the US Senate by winning a bitterly fought seat in Georgia, according to projections.
Raphael Warnock fended off Republican challenger Herschel Walker in a run-off vote, after neither candidate secured 50% of the vote in last month’s midterm elections.
The result means that President Joe Biden's party now holds the upper chamber of Congress by 51-49, and for Warnock, he declared that “the people have spoken”, in his victory speech.
Meanwhile, it comes as a blow to by former President Donald Trump, who endorsed American football legend and political newcomer Walker as a candidate.

What does solidified Senate control mean for US Democrats? | DW News
Democrats on Tuesday won the runoff vote for the US Senate seat in the southern state of Georgia. The victory gives Democrats a 51-49 majority in the upper house of the US Congress. Had they lost the Georgia seat, the Senate would have been split 50-50, with Vice President Kamala Harris' vote as the tie-breaker.
Both Democrats and Republicans saw the high stakes in this race, as Georgia is also expected to play a major role in the next presidential election — as it did in 2020.

Session III: Eastern Partnership – an Agent of Democratic Transformation
The Eastern Partnership is founded on a community of values and principles between the EU and Eastern partners. These values: respect for international law, democratic governance, rule of law, human rights, and fundamental freedoms are enshrined in all the bilateral agreements concluded under the Eastern Partnership. However, democracy has been taking root variably among the partners. Despite clear overall progress, much remains to be done to tackle the persisting challenges to democracy.
How does the Eastern Partnership help promote development of effective and democratic institutions in EaP countries? Have these efforts strengthened their resilience to threats and reduced societal vulnerabilities?

Democrats on Tuesday won the runoff vote for the US Senate seat in the southern state of Georgia. The victory gives Democrats a 51-49 majority in the upper house of the US Congress. Had they lost the Georgia seat, the Senate would have been split 50-50, with Vice President Kamala Harris' vote as the tie-breaker.
Both Democrats and Republicans saw the high stakes in this race, as Georgia is also expected to play a major role in the next presidential election — as it did in 2020. Incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock defeated his Republican challenger, former American football star Herschel Walker. The two Black candidates failed to gain a majority in the November 8 midterm vote, although Warnock led Walker by about 37,000 votes out of almost 4 million cast.
Warnock hails outcome
"It is my honor to utter the four most powerful words ever spoken in a democracy: the people have spoken," Warnock said in his victory speech. Warnock became Georgia's first Black senator in January 2021. The 53-year-old holds a doctorate in theology. He continued to hold his position as the senior minister of the Atlanta church where civil rights movement leader Martin Luther King Jr. preached. "I often say that a vote is a kind of prayer for the world we desire for ourselves and for our children. Voting is faith put into action," he said late Tuesday.
Walker concedes
Walker, 60, was backed by former President Donald Trump. He is a former football star, and is considered one of the best players in the history of US college football. In his concession speech, Walker told his supporters, "The numbers look like they're not going to add up." "There's no excuses in life and I'm not going to make any excuses now because we put up one heck of a fight," he said at the College Football Hall of Fame in downtown Atlanta.
With $400 million (€382 million) spent on campaigning, the Georgia vote was the most expensive in the 2022 midterms. According to their disclosures, Warnock's campaign spent about $170 million on the campaign, while Walker's spending was at around $60 million. Further spending on the race was made by the Democratic and Republican party committees, as well as other political groups. US President Joe Biden's government is set to face hurdles in pursuing policies with a Republican-controlled House of Representatives. But a clear Democratic majority in the Senate gives the president an edge. Georgia, a traditionally Republican state, was the scene of dramatic runoffs in 2020. The state also voted for Biden in the last election, making him the first Democrat to win Georgia's vote in decades. A Democrat win also solidifies Georgia's status as a battleground heading into the 2024 presidential vote, while a victory for Republicans could be an indication of Democratic weakness.

https://wn.com/What_Does_Solidified_Senate_Control_Mean_For_US_Democrats_|_Dw_News
Democrats on Tuesday won the runoff vote for the US Senate seat in the southern state of Georgia. The victory gives Democrats a 51-49 majority in the upper house of the US Congress. Had they lost the Georgia seat, the Senate would have been split 50-50, with Vice President Kamala Harris' vote as the tie-breaker.
Both Democrats and Republicans saw the high stakes in this race, as Georgia is also expected to play a major role in the next presidential election — as it did in 2020. Incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock defeated his Republican challenger, former American football star Herschel Walker. The two Black candidates failed to gain a majority in the November 8 midterm vote, although Warnock led Walker by about 37,000 votes out of almost 4 million cast.

The Eastern Partnership is founded on a community of values and principles between the EU and Eastern partners. These values: respect for international law, democratic governance, rule of law, human rights, and fundamental freedoms are enshrined in all the bilateral agreements concluded under the Eastern Partnership. However, democracy has been taking root variably among the partners. Despite clear overall progress, much remains to be done to tackle the persisting challenges to democracy.
How does the Eastern Partnership help promote development of effective and democratic institutions in EaP countries? Have these efforts strengthened their resilience to threats and reduced societal vulnerabilities?
