Jon Ossoff fundraises on report Trump will ‘reheat’ conspiracies about 2020 election in Georgia 

Published July 14, 2026 12:22pm ET



Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) sought to rally his base on Monday evening in response to reports that President Donald Trump will state that Georgia’s two senators are illegitimate due to claims that fraud corrupted the state’s 2020 election. 

Ossoff is running for reelection and will face Republican nominee Mike Collins in November. In a post to X, Ossoff predicted Trump’s “bizarre new lies to deny his 2020 defeat and attack voting rights” in Georgia would spell bad news for his GOP rival. The Democrat used the reported development to fundraise by leaning into fears that Trump will seek to reverse the election there, as he called on “concerned citizens nationwide to join me and support our voter protection efforts in Georgia.”
