Ossoff Wins Reelection to Georgia Senate Seat
PN Team • 2 days ago
Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) won reelection, according to Decision Desk and NBC News, defeating Republican Rep. Mike Collins in one of the cycle's most closely watched Senate battlegrounds. Georgia was Democrats' lone incumbent-held seat in a state Republicans had targeted to flip, and the race had been rated a toss-up as Democrats sought a net gain of four seats for Senate control.
Both parties spent heavily before Republican groups redirected funds to other states late in the race. Early voting drew scrutiny from election monitors and a lawsuit over absentee ballots in Cobb County, while turnout data showed strong Democratic enthusiasm heading into Election Day.
