Maine could swing power in the Senate
Right now the Dems need to win both Senate seats in Georgia to take control, BUT, Biden is now considering Independent Angus King for a cabinet appointment as Director of National Intelligence. Maine permits Governor Mills, a hard Democrat, to fill the seat from any party. So it would be a forgone conclusion she would appoint a Dem, perhaps even Sarah Gideon, who just lost to Republican Susan Collins. Watch it happen, then the Dems only need one of the Georgia seats to take control. They are playing for keeps.

King is an Independent. He caucuses with the Dems and votes with them 100% of the time, but he’s still an Independent. If Biden appoints him, he vacates his seat, and the governor gets to pick his replacement. Some states require the governor to appoint a replacement from the same party as the person leaving. Maine does not. Governor Mills, a hardened liberal, can appoint a Dem to serve out his term, and voila, the Dems have one more Democrat senator.

Make no mistake, this is a chess move by Biden in picking an Independent Senator for a cabinet position in a state that allows the governor to pick a replacement from any party. And it will work. It sucks.
