Former Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.) filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on Monday showing that he is considering a run for the U.S. Senate in 2022.
Perdue lost the 2020 election to Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) and would be up against Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.), who defeated then-Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler in the same dual runoff election in early January. Warnock is up for re-election because he is serving out the term unfinished by former Sen. Johnny Isakson’s (R-Ga.).
