Georgia is holding two runoff elections for U.S. Senate on January 5, 2021, as no candidate received a majority of votes in either the regularly scheduled election or the special election on November 3, 2020. Georgia was the only state to hold two U.S. Senate elections in 2020. The special election is being held to fill the rest of retired Sen. Johnny Isakson's (R) term.

The runoff elections will determine which party has a majority in the U.S. Senate. Democrats need to win both seats to split control of the chamber 50-50. The vice president (Democrat Kamala Harris beginning in January 2021) casts tie-breaking votes in the Senate. Republicans need to win at least one seat to maintain their majority.

Georgia will have two crucial runoff elections on January 5, 2021. These two races decides which party has the Senate majority. It will determine if Chuck Schumer or Mitch McConnell gets the majority of the Senate.

If Mitch McConnell wins again, that would mean that the laws Biden proposes to Congress would most likely be rejected by the Republicans. If this happens, Biden's agenda can not get through.

If Chuck Schumer wins, that that would mean that the laws Biden proposes to Congress would very likely be passed by the Senate. If this somehow happens, Biden's agenda will get through with no distractions.
