She was appointed to Isaacson's seat and she had to run in November to hold it until the regular term ends. Perdue is at the end of his first six year term. That means that Ossoff will hold the seat until 2026. Warnock will have to run again in two years.

Loeffler's no. She is a senator until the election results are certified (she is serving the unexpired term that would be until 2022). If she wins she has to run again in 2022, if she loses, then Warnock does. In either case she is the senator until those results come in.

Continue to serve. She was appointed to a seat expiring in 2022. This election was a special one allowing citizens to pick a person for that seat instead of the Governor.
