All eyes in the US on the last two neck-and-neck midterm races: 'It could take a long time'

In Alaska, Mary Peltola leads with 102,962 votes, closely followed by Republican Dan S. Sullivan. The race remains tight as postal votes are still being counted, and the outcome could change. In Mississippi, Scott Colom leads with 467,930 votes, but provisional ballots may delay the final results. Both states' outcomes won't affect the overall Senate majority, which Democrats are expected to maintain.
