"The fate of eight House and Senate races remained unclear through Thursday afternoon as ballots continued to be counted in contested races across the nation.

Senate races in Minnesota and Alaska may be headed toward recounts. Georgia’s Senate race, meanwhile, appears headed toward a runoff.

While Democrats picked up six Senate seats, they are still three seats short of the 60 seats needed for a filibuster-resistant majority. Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee spokesman Matthew Miller said the committee is still focused on the potential pickup opportunities remaining on the board."
