16. There are two seats up for Georgia

the seat to replace David Perdue, who is up for re-election. Perdue is opposed by Jon Ossoff. Current polling has Ossoff about even.

Then, there is the special election with the Insider Trading Kelly Loeffler running to keep the seat she was appointed to when Johnny Isakson retired due to cancer. Loeffler is opposed by Doug Collins in her own party and by Rev. Raphael Warnock for the Democrats. That election is also November 3rd, but if nobody gets 50%, then the runoff will be on January 3rd. RW extremist loon Collins is leading RW extremist Loeffler on the Republican side, so I'm hoping Warnock can unify Democrats (A few others are running on the Dem side) and get 50% in November while Loeffler & Collins split the Republican vote.
