亚特兰大-格鲁吉亚的两位美国参议院运行民主党人个席位募集100多万元两个多月$，大规模的长途即日食他们的对手共和党竞选d贡献，反映了孪生比赛的高风险。
据乔恩·奥索夫（Jon Ossoff）接任参议员大卫·珀杜（David Perdue）的最新竞选财务报告显示，从10月15日至12月16日，他的收入超过了1.06亿美元。拉斐尔·沃诺克（Raphael Warnock）试图超越参议员凯利·洛夫勒（Kelly Loeffler），以1.03亿美元的收入紧随其后。
珀杜（Perdue）报告在过去两个月中的收入为6800万美元，洛夫勒（Loeffler）收入不到6400万美元。其中三个广告系列在周四报告了其财务数据。洛夫勒（Loeffler）在一天前提交了她的照片。
两场比赛将决定哪个党控制参议院 - 并有可能当选总统拜登如何雄心勃勃的可与他的日程。
如果共和党人赢得一场比赛，他们将维持一小部分多数，而众议院将成为反对民主立法的堡垒。但是，如果民主党同时携带，平衡性将是50-50 -with当选副总统卡马拉·哈里斯提供决胜票。假设拜登可以让其他民主党人参与进来，那么这将使拜登能够制定更雄心勃勃的议程。
在Perdue和Loeffler在选举日未能获得超过50％的选票后，乔治亚州的两场径流竞赛在11月开始。1月5日的选举已经开始提前投票。
沃诺克竞选经理杰里德·库兹（Jerid Kurtz）在一份声明中说：“基层的支持和慷慨使我们感到沮丧，沃纳克牧师继续代表美国参议院的所有乔治亚人参加竞选。”
奥索夫（Ossoff）的竞选活动说，它为选民的投票工作感到自豪。Loeffler的竞选活动没有发表任何声明。圣诞节当天给Perdue发言人的短信没有立即返回。
筹款数字远远超过破纪录的5700万美元，民主党人杰米·哈里森（Jaime Harrison）在四月四分之一的竞选中试图击败南卡罗来纳州的美国参议员林赛·格雷厄姆（Lindsey Graham）。哈里森输掉了那场比赛。
此外，外界团体还在一月份的径流中花费了数千万美元。先前针对佐治亚州种族的竞选财务信息显示，共和党外部团体具有筹款优势。
这些钱助长了广告和挨家挨户的推销活动。
根据他们的最新披露，奥索夫和沃诺克已经花费了超过1.79亿美元。截至12月16日，他们手头上的捐款约为4000万美元。
Perdue和Loeffler花费了超过1.06亿美元。在本报告所述期间结束时，他们报告手头约有3,700万美元。
Democrats in Georgia Senate contests take in more than $200M
ATLANTA -- The Democrats running for Georgia's two U.S. Senate seats each raised more than $100 million over two months, a massive haul that eclipsed campaign contributions to their Republican opponents and reflects the high stakes of the twin contests.
Jon Ossoff, who is taking on Sen. David Perdue, took in more than $106 million from Oct. 15 through Dec. 16, according to his latest campaign finance report. Raphael Warnock, who is trying to unseat Sen. Kelly Loeffler, was close behind with a little over $103 million.
Perdue reported $68 million over the same two-month span, with Loeffler taking in just under $64 million. Three of the campaigns reported their financial data on Thursday. Loeffler submitted hers a day earlier.
The two races will determine which party controls the Senate — and likely how ambitious President-elect Joe Biden can be with his agenda.
If Republicans win one race, they will maintain a narrow majority, and the chamber will serve as a bulwark against Democratic legislation. But if Democrats carry both, the balance will be 50-50 —with Vice President-elect Kamala Harris delivering tie-breaking votes. That will likely enable Biden to enact a more ambitious agenda, assuming he can keep fellow Democrats on board.
Georgia’s two runoff races kicked off in November after Perdue and Loeffler failed to get more than 50 percent of the vote on Election Day. Early voting has already started for the Jan. 5 election.
“We’re humbled by the grassroots support and generosity that continues to power Reverend Warnock’s campaign to represent all Georgians in the U.S. Senate," Jerid Kurtz, Warnock's campaign manager, said in a statement.
Ossoff's campaign said it was proud of its voter turnout work. Loeffler's campaign did not release a statement. A text message to a spokesman for Perdue on Christmas Day was not immediately returned.
The fundraising figures far surpass the record-shattering $57 million that Democrat Jaime Harrison raised in one quarter in his bid to unseat U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham in South Carolina in November. Harrison lost that race.
And they are in addition to tens of millions of more dollars being spent on the January runoffs by outside groups. Previous campaign finance disclosures for the Georgia races suggest Republican outside groups have a fundraising advantage.
The money has fueled a barrage of advertising and door-to-door canvassing.
Ossoff and Warnock have already spent more than $179 million, according to their latest disclosures. As of Dec. 16, they had about $40 million on hand for the campaigns' homestretch.
Perdue and Loeffler have spent more than $106 million. They reported about $37 million on hand at the close of the reporting period.
