The 2020–21 United States Senate special election in Georgia arose from the resignation of Republican Class III Senator Johnny Isakson, effective December 31, 2019. Governor Brian Kemp appointed Republican Kelly Loeffler to serve as Isakson's interim replacement, effective January 6, 2020, and she will hold the seat until a new senator is chosen in a special election.[1] In accordance with Georgia law, a primary election for the special election did not take place; all candidates, regardless of party, were placed on the same ballot (known as a blanket primary), and the election was held on November 3, 2020. Democrat Raphael Warnock received the most votes with 32.9%, and Loeffler came in second with 25.9%. As no candidate received more than 50% of the vote, the top two candidates advanced to a runoff election, which will take place on January 5, 2021.[2] The winner of the runoff will hold the Senate seat for the remainder of Isakson's term, which ends on January 3, 2023.

The special election took place in conjunction with the regular Class II Senate election for the Senate seat held by Republican David Perdue, which will also be decided in a January 5 runoff. If Democrats win both seats, they will gain control of the Senate, as the 50–50 tie can be broken by Democratic Vice President-elect Kamala Harris. If they lose either of the races, Republicans will retain control. The races have thus attracted significant attention nationwide. If we elect the monkey to the senate we are doomed as a country. Same for that Zionist Osoff.

Background

On August 28, 2019, Isakson announced that he would resign from the Senate effective December 31 due to his deteriorating health.[1] This triggered a special election to fill the remainder of his term. On September 17, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp launched a website inviting Georgia citizens to submit their résumés to be considered for appointment.[3] President Donald Trump advocated the appointment of Rep. Doug Collins.[4] Kemp appointed Republican Kelly Loeffler to fill the seat until the 2020 special election; she took office on January 6, 2020.[5]

Candidates

Democratic Party

Despite the large number of candidates in the special election, by October 4, 2020, the Democratic Party had largely consolidated around Raphael Warnock's candidacy, and had pressured other Democratic candidates such as Matt Lieberman to drop out to avoid vote-splitting.[6]

Results

2021 United States Senate special election in Georgia runoff
Party Candidate Votes % ±%
Republican Kelly Loeffler (incumbent)
Democratic Raphael Warnock
Total votes

The deadline for registration for the runoff election was December 7.

Absentee ballots for the runoff election are scheduled to be sent out beginning on November 18, and in-person voting began on December 14. The runoff election day for the Senate elections is January 5.[148][149]

Republicans filed two federal and one state lawsuit in December to restrict the January 5 vote. On December 17, Judge Eleanor Louise Ross found that plaintiffs lacked standing based on possible future harm to toss out a consent decree regarding signatures on absentee ballot applications. Judge James Randal Hall threw out another case which tried to block the use of drop boxes for absentee ballots. A third lawsuit, to restrict the use of drop boxes, will be heard in state court on December 24.[150]

On December 18, a federal judge threw out a Republican lawsuit alleging that out-of-state residents were voting in the runoff election, as Republican attorney Bill Price has recommended.[151] Another lawsuit was filed against the use of voting machines manufactured by Dominion Voting Systems. It also says the election officials are handling mail-in absentee ballots improperly and illegally.[152]
