New polling suggests Jon Ossoff, who is challenging incumbent Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) in a runoff election on January 5, is starting to fall behind, due in part to an ongoing scandal involving Chinese business dealings.

Trafalgar Group, one of the most accurate polls in 2020, released a survey on Friday showing Perdue, as well as fellow Republican incumbent Sen. Kelly Loeffler, each led their opponents by several percentage points. The survey found Perdue leading Ossoff by three points, 50.2% to 47.5%.
