I have been unable to find out the number of seats in the senate now - what is the balance of power? Were many seats picked up?

It's not all finalized yet.

The latest official count I can find:

Republican - 51 seats
Democrat - 44 seats
Independent - 2 seats

Here are a few with issues as I understand them:

MISSISSIPPI - Runoff election to take place between Hyde-Smith(R) and Espy(D) on Nov 27, 2018.

ARIZONA - McSally(R) 49.4% Sinema(D) 48.4% Still counting provisional ballots, etc.
Lawsuits filed by republicans challenging unlawful method of verifying provisional ballots in some precincts.

FLORIDA - Scott(R) leads Nelson(D) by less than ½% with some (mostly democrat) precincts still counting.
Nelson conceded election night but has since 'un-conceded' (like Al Gore did).
If the final lead is less than ½% there will be a mandatory recount.

GEORGIA - Kemp(R) 50.3% Abrams(D) 48.7 Seems to be final but Abrams refuses to concede calling for a recount

AZ is 99% in and has been for 2 days. How long does it take to count 1%?
