Democrat Jon Ossoff has won election to the US senate, meaning the party has won control of the house, which will make it much easier for Joe Biden to push through legislation when he is inaugurated.
The party won both of the Senate elections in Georgia, giving them a majority in both houses of the US Congress - the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Ossoff beat Republican rival David Perdue, while Ossoff's fellow Democrat Raphael Warnock beat Republican Kelly Loeffler to her seat in the state.
This means the Republican party no longer have a majority in the upper house of the US Congress - the Senate.

Although Joe Biden's Democrats already won the House of Representatives, which is the lower house, control of both houses means the President-elect's party would have greater powers to enforce legislation.
Joe Biden will be inaugurated on 20 January, but Trump has still failed to concede, launching multiple lawsuits on claimed election fraud.
The President has already faced issues around the state, having been caught asking Georgia's Secretary of State to 'find' votes that would help overturn the results.
In a recording released by the Washington Post, Trump said Brad Raffensperger: "I just want to find 11,780 votes."
