<p><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2026-elections/georgia-senate-results" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NBC News</a>, based on AP data, projects Jon Ossoff as the winner of the Georgia Senate race against Mike Collins. At 10:30 CET the count stood at 59.0 to 41.0 percent with 98.7 percent counted. In the race for governor, NBC News projects Keisha Lance Bottoms as the winner over Rick Jackson, 54.3 to 45.7 percent with 99 percent counted. NBC News calls that <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2026-elections/georgia-governor-results" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">a flip for Democrats</a> and a historic win. Donald Trump won Georgia in 2024 with 2,663,117 votes to 2,548,017 for Kamala Harris, a margin of 2.2 points, so Tuesday's results are a clear reversal in one of the states that decides presidential elections.</p>

<h2 id="georgia-senate-results-jon-ossoff-wins-a-second-term">Georgia Senate results: Jon Ossoff wins a second term</h2>
<p>Ossoff <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020%E2%80%9321_United_States_Senate_election_in_Georgia" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">narrowly beat David Perdue in the January 2021 runoff</a> and defended the seat as one of two Democratic-held Senate seats in states Trump won in 2024, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_United_States_Senate_election_in_Georgia" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">according to Wikipedia's race overview</a>. His opponent, Representative Mike Collins, won the Republican runoff with 55.5 percent after an endorsement from Trump. Because the winner cleared 50 percent, Georgia needs no Senate runoff this time. By type of vote, Ossoff against Collins so far: mail ballots 69 to 31 percent, early in-person votes 63 to 37 percent, Election Day votes 51 to 49 percent. We estimate about 24,000 votes are still out, most of them in Fayette, Burke, Dougherty.</p>

<h2 id="georgia-governor-race-keisha-lance-bottoms-flips-the-office">Georgia governor race: Keisha Lance Bottoms flips the office</h2>
<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keisha_Lance_Bottoms" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Keisha Lance Bottoms</a> was mayor of Atlanta from 2018 to 2022 and then worked in the Biden White House. She is set to become the first Black woman to serve as governor of a US state and takes office in January 2027. Her opponent, businessman Rick Jackson, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Georgia_gubernatorial_election" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">largely funded his own campaign</a> and beat Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones in a primary runoff even though Trump and outgoing Governor Brian Kemp had endorsed Jones. Before this election, Republicans held the governor's office in Georgia.</p>
<h2 id="georgia-2024-vs-2026-where-the-counties-moved">Georgia 2024 vs 2026: where the counties moved</h2>
<p>Fulton County, home to most of Atlanta, went from D+44.9 in the 2024 presidential race to D+59.1 now, with 95 percent counted. Gwinnett County, in the Atlanta suburbs, went from D+16.5 in the 2024 presidential race to D+42.6 now, with 95 percent counted. Cobb County, also in the suburbs, went from D+14.9 in the 2024 presidential race to D+34.2 now, with 95 percent counted. Across the larger areas with at least half of the count in, the margin moved 19.0 points toward Democrats on average. These figures compare a partial Senate count with a full presidential count, so the final swing can still change.</p>

<p>Crypto money in Georgia went mostly into House races. <a href="https://influence.citationneeded.news/2026/states/georgia" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Tech Influence Watch</a>, formerly Follow the Crypto, lists $4,418,666 from Protect Progress in Districts 6 and 13 and $1,894,795 from Defend American Jobs in Districts 1, 3, 8, 10 and 14; both committees belong to the Fairshake network. In the Senate race it shows $350,000 from Fellowship PAC for Collins in the primary, plus $30,788 in direct support from Intercontinental Exchange, Gemini, Winklevoss Capital Management and one other company or their executives. Ossoff drew $153,926 in direct support from Google, Microsoft, Anduril and eight other companies or their executives.</p>
<p>The advocacy group Stand With Crypto <a href="https://www.standwithcrypto.org/us/races/state/ga/senate" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">scores Collins at 100 and Ossoff at 58</a>. The scores point to the problem for the industry. The CLARITY Act <a href="https://thedefiant.io/news/regulation/senate-blocks-clarity-act-49-50-with-no-democratic-votes-to-proceed" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">failed a Senate vote to open debate 49 to 50 on 15 September</a>, and no Democrat voted yes. It needs 60 votes, so a new attempt in 2027 runs through senators like Ossoff, who now has six more years.

<h2 id="why-georgia-matters-for-the-senate-majority">Why Georgia matters for the Senate majority</h2>
<p>Republicans went into the night with 53 seats, so Democrats need a net gain of four for the majority. Holding Georgia does not add a seat, but losing it would have raised the number to five. NBC News projects Democrats to control the Senate, with 54 seats for Democrats and 44 for Republicans at 10:30 CET. All calls and the full Senate table are in our <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/midterm-election-results-2026-live/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">midterm results live ticker</a>.
