Ossoff is leading with about 80 percent of the vote to Collins’s nearly 20 percent with 11 percent of precincts reporting.
Georgia was one of the few legitimate pickup opportunities for the GOP in the Senate, being a state that President Trump carried in 2024. But Ossoff’s reelection never seemed seriously in doubt as he consistently led in polling and easily outraised his opponent throughout the campaign.
Ossoff has been seen as a rising star among Democrats since he first won an open Senate seat in Georgia in 2020, helping to hand the party a narrow Senate majority. But his stock has been rising especially over the past year, and he has been the subject of increasing presidential speculation.
The senator has repeatedly brushed off the speculation, saying he’s not interested in running for higher office and is focused on winning reelection to his Senate seat. During a debate with Collins last month, Ossoff pledged to serve the entirety of his six-year term in the Senate if reelected.
