## Key points

- Jon Ossoff won re-election in Georgia.
- Obama’s endorsement fuelled talk of a 2028 run.
- Ossoff says he plans to serve a full Senate term.

## Summary

Jon Ossoff won re-election to the US Senate in Georgia, prompting fresh speculation about whether he might run for president in 2028. Barack Obama endorsed him as the “only common-sense choice” and praised his political mentor, while a CNN analyst called election night the first day of an Ossoff presidential campaign.

Ossoff, who turns 40 in February, has repeatedly said he has “zero interest” in running for president and pledged to serve a full six-year Senate term. The article points to similarities supporters draw with Obama, including their relative youth and early Senate careers, while noting that Obama also once ruled out a presidential run before announcing one. A prediction market put Ossoff’s 2028 chances at 18 per cent, ahead of Gavin Newsom at 14 per cent and behind JD Vance at 20 per cent.
