FYI——Jon Ossoff ran twice for federal office before being elected to the U.S. Senate in 2020: once for Congress in 2017 and again for Senate in 2020.

In 2017, Ossoff ran in a special election for Georgia’s 6th Congressional District to fill the seat vacated by Tom Price. Ossoff was ultimately defeated in the runoff election by Republican Karen Handel.

Ossoff’s second campaign was for the U.S. Senate in 2020. In the initial election in November, no candidate received a majority of the vote. This led to a runoff election in January 2021, where Ossoff defeated incumbent Republican David Perdue. This victory officially marked his first successful run for elected office........his election gave Democrats control of the Senate.
