Some pollsters expect Republicans to wind up with 51 seats, a majority in the Senate .

The focus during the Biden administration has been an increase of oversight of tech companies.

A flip in control may mean that Sen. Ted Cruz , R- Texas , currently the ranking member on the Senate Commerce Committee , becomes chairman in the next Congress .

The measure is backed by Sen. Maria Cantwell , D-Wash., chair of the Senate Commerce Committee , and Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers .

Cruz has said the proposal would give too much authority to the Federal Trade Commission .

If Cruz becomes Senate Commerce chair, he would “get another run” at a federal privacy standard, a trade group says.
