If the Republican in Mississippi wins the run off, the 'new Senate' (once seated) would be 48 to 52, and if the Democrat wins the Mississippi run off the total would be 49 to 51, with Republicans in the majority.
I'm not wrong about Sinema winning only 2 counties left with Tuscan southern AZ usually votes DEM, and Yuma county is desert population doesn't equal the votes McSally needs I live here I can tell you for sure it's over here. The number if seats is still unknown.

AP calls the race, Sinema will be the next Senator from Arizona

Any more House seats uncalled, other than ME-2?

Some have called races others haven't, but the general consensus is this is what remains in addition to ME-2

CA-10
CA-39
CA-45
GA-7
NJ-3
TX-23
UT-4

There's at least a half dozen. Dave Wasserman of Cook Political produced a spread sheet that he’s updating. The ones not listing a winner are the ones still being tabulated

Also attached are Wasserman’s twitter and the CNN elections results where you can track the status of every House and Senate race.

For 2 years. McCain’s seat is up for re-election in 2020. Sinema’s seat is safe until 2024.

The big deal is that a democrat hasn't won a senate seat in Arizona in 30 years.

I believe that it is now maybe +1. The Democrat wave is still rolling in.
