A new face in the Senate with deep pockets. Photo: Drew Angerer/Getty Images If you want a post-2020-election scenario that’s perilous fun, consider the possibility that control of the U.S. Senate will hang in the balance as voters in an increasingly polarized Georgia choose a senator in a January 5, 2021 runoff.

Doug Collins, R-Ga., for Georgia’s U.S. Senate seat as the congressman continues his controversial campaign to unseat incumbent Sen. Kelly Loeffler, R-Ga., in a special election this November.The endorsement from Great America PAC, which boasts that it has “raised and spent $40 million in support of Donald Trump’s candidacy, presidency, and agenda,” follows an endorsement of Collins earlier this week by Rep. Drew Ferguson, R-Ga.
