Ossoff defeats Perdue in Georgia, handing control of Senate to Democrats, NBC News projects Sahil Kapur and Lauren Egan and Alex Seitz-Wald © Provided by NBC News ATLANTA Democrats have swept both seats in Georgia’s critical runoff elections, NBC News projects, giving the party control of the Senate and removing a major roadblock for President-elect Joe Biden. Democrat Jon Ossoff defeated Republican David Perdue in Tuesday’s election, NBC News projected Wednesday afternoon, while the network earlier called Georgia’s other race for Democrat Raphael Warnock over GOP Sen. Kelly Loeffler.

Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., remained in charge.
