Republican Dave McCormick wins Pennsylvania Senate seat

Republican Dave McCormick defeated incumbent Democrat Bob Casey of Pennsylvania to win a Senate seat. Republicans now have at least 53 seats, and there are two races ahead - Arizona and Nevada, but both Democrats running for both seats are currently in the lead. It is reported that McCormick is backed by Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and has been outspoken in his support of the cryptocurrency industry, although he is not backed by any major cryptocurrency-affiliated PACs.
