It's now health insurance open enrollment and across America people are discovering eye-popping rate hikes and healthcare benefit cuts as they check out insurance for next year.

Across Senate battleground states, soaring health-care costs — on top of rising prices for food, housing and electricity — are hammering voters and boosting Democratic hopes that they can cut into the GOP majority.

In Georgia, there are already reports that monthly Obamacare premiums could as much as quadruple, with a deductible of up to $10,000, a massive price shock for Peach State enrollees.

“My constituents are already logging on and seeing that their premiums are gonna be nearly doubled or doubled or more than doubled, and they’ve got to start buying their insurance in a couple weeks,” said Sen. Jon Ossoff (Ga.), the most vulnerable Democrat up for reelection next year.

In Maine, the Bureau of Insurance announced individual marketplace plans will see premiums rise by an average of 24% in 2026. Hikes will average almost 18% on the small employer market.
