Since people are predicting a GOP wave year in 2022.

Democrats will end up with 49 to 50 US Senate seats after 2022.

Democratic incumbents Kelly(AZ) and Cortez Masto(NV) are on the top of the list of being defeated by a narrow margin- less than 5 percent.
Warnock(GA) will have to face voters again in 1/2023.
Democrats are going to win the open Republican seat in PA(Toomey-R/Fetterman-D) and defeat the only Republican incumbent- WI(Johnson-R/Barnes-D)

The GA US Senate Election runoff is going to decide which political party is in the majority in the next Congress.

Warnock is filling the last two years of a term originally held by Isaakson, who resigned and was replaced by Kelly Loeffler, who was appointed until a special election could be held, which Warnock won. Warnock will then be up for election for a full 6-year term on the same date in November as all other Senators who are up for election in 2022. It is not a runoff election.

In GA, if no one gets above 50 percent of the popular vote in November. The 1st and 2nd place finishers have to compete again in January. This is what happened in both GA US Senate races in 2022.

Euphorb. Don’t reply until you get all the facts.

Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff officially won in the December/January runoff.
