On Tuesday, Georgians went to the polls to vote in the senate runoff elections between Democrat Rev. Raphael Warnock and Republican incumbent Kelly Loeffler, as well as Democrat Jon Ossoff and Republican incumbent David Perdue.
As the night wore on, it became clear the Democrats were going to pull off an upset, winning both seats and control of the senate.
As Warnock and Ossoff's win became apparent, former presidential candidate and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had a five word message for Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
She shared it on Twitter.
