The Senate landscape looks different from the last time there was a Supreme Court fight, just before the 2018 midterms. But Jones isn't running away from his party, most recently joining his fellow Senate Democrats in saying he'd oppose any Trump Supreme Court nominee before Election Day. John Hickenlooper, launched one of the first ads to mention the Supreme Court vacancy , pointing out Gardner's support for confirmation before the election. Democrat Jon Ossoff, who lost an expensive 2017 special House election in the Atlanta suburbs, is taking on first-term Republican Sen. David Perdue. Republicans were always enthused by John James, an Iraq war veteran and Black businessman who lost Michigan's 2018 Senate race.
