Uncertainty in the Senate as Sinema leaves Democratic Party

Sen. Raphael Warnock this week beat his GOP rival Herschel Walker in Georgia’s runoff election, temporarily handing Democrats a 51-49 majority in the Senate. But that advantage was thrown into doubt Friday after Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema left the Democratic Party and registered as an independent. Meanwhile, the Biden administration negotiated the release of WNBA star Brittney Griner from Russia.
