Republican Sen.-elect Bernie Moreno beat Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), a populist liberal icon.

Moreno ’s win helped Republicans capture the Senate majority for the first time since a pair of January 2021 special elections for Georgia Senate seats gave Democrats control of the chamber for what turned out to be four years .

Moreno , who immigrated from Colombia to the U.S. as a child, railed against Brown and Biden on border security.

If Republicans end up holding their House majority, GOP senators could also consider eliminating their chamber’s filibuster rule.

That would mean 60 votes in the 100 -member chamber no longer would be needed to consider legislation and then pass it.

With it gone, Republicans in a unified GOP government could enact virtually any agenda item they wanted.
