The results of Tuesday's runoff election in Georgia will decide which party controls the U.S. Senate. Even if the Democrats gain control, they’ll still be looking for support from moderate Republicans. "Senators who are willing to vote with the other side will certainly find themselves getting a lot of attention and likely very favorable treatment of any issues that disproportionately affect their states," Assistant Professor of Political Science Steven White told The 74. He also spoke to La Tercera about the runoff election in Georgia.
