Not a huge shock but the Republicans have swept the Louisiana runoffs, defeating incumbent Senator Mary Landrieu and also carrying two house seats.
This makes the new Senate 54R to 46D
In the House the GOP will hold at least 246 seats, tying their 1947-49 figures.
One seat in Arizona remains undecided due to a recount but the GOP is expected to win that seat and have 247 seats by January
