Republicans’ number of seats in the US Senate increased to 52.
According to the Associated Press, the presidential election in the United States was held yesterday, and at the same time, midterm elections for the Senate were also held in 33 states of the country.
The American people not only elected the next president, but also most of the members of Congress. The presidential election competition was between Kamala Harris, the Democratic candidate, and Donald Trump, the former President and Republican candidate, which ultimately ended with Trump winning more than 270 electoral votes.
Republicans have now also won the 52nd Senate seat.
The number of Democratic seats in the Senate has also reached 42.
In this election, the president and 469 members of Congress (all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and a little more than a third of the 100 Senate seats) will be elected.
Also, according to the Associated Press, Republicans are leading in the US House of Representatives elections.
