Nope. Georgia does this crap and had it not been implemented in 2018, we’d have to republicans in the senate. Run offs suck.

That’s a runoff in the general election. What I’m talking about is runoffs in the primary election. They weed out week candidates.

No, it was 2020. Why were there 2 senate seats up that year? It was because Isakson ran for reelection in 2016 when he should have retired due to health concerns. He ended up resigning his seat in 2019 and Loeffler was appointed to fill the seat til a special election was held to fill the last 2 years of the term. Loeffler’s campaign was dreadful. She had tone deaf political advisors who ran ads that caused the WNBA to force her out of ownership of the WNBA team she part owned. There never should have been 2 senate seats up in 2020. Also, Trump pulled down both those seats. Both the senate candidates still outpolled Trump on election night. Trump hand picked his friend, Hershel Walker, to run in 2022 for the full term that Loeffler lost in 2020. He was an awful candidate too and lost.
