ATLANTA (AP) — Georgia Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff is building a cash hoard even as he is already spending heavily on his 2026 reelection campaign.

Ossoff, the only Democrat seeking reelection next year from a state that President Donald Trump won in 2024, said Wednesday that he raised more than $12 million from July through September.

The first-term senator says he now has $21 million in the bank, but Ossoff spent nearly half of what he raised in the third quarter, reflecting a campaign that is already well underway. An outside group with ties to Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune announced in July that it was spending $5 million to advertise against Ossoff, while Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America said it would spend $4.5 million against Ossoff in September.

Ossoff said he received 233,000 donations over the three-month period, underlining how he has built a powerful fundraising operation.

However, I do love Senator Ossoff. He is good for Georgia and the Country.
