Georgia Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff raises $12 million for 2026 reelection
October 8, 2025
Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff says he raised more than $12 million from July through September. The first-term Democrat is trying to build up cash as he prepares for what is likely to be a bruising 2026 reelection bid. Ossoff says he has $21 million in the bank, but he spent nearly half of what he raised in the third quarter. That reflects a campaign that is already ramping up, with Republican groups spending against him. Two top Republican challengers, Mike Collins and Derek Dooley, each raised nearly $2 million by the end of September. The third major Republican in the race is U.S. Rep. Buddy Carter. He hasn’t reported a total yet.
