In the U.S. Senate, if there is a tie with 50 Republicans and 50 Democrats, there is no clear majority party. However, the Vice President of the United States can cast a tie-breaking vote, giving the party of the Vice President the effective majority. If the Vice President is from the Democratic Party, for example, the Democrats would hold the majority due to the tie-breaking vote. Conversely, if the Vice President is a Republican, the Republicans would have the majority.
