{{See also|2004 United States Senate election in Georgia}}In early 2003, conservative Democratic U.S. Senator Zell Millerâwho had been appointed to fill out the term of the late Republican Senator Paul Coverdell and elected to the post in his own right in 2000âdeclared his intention not to run for a full term in the Senate in 2004. Isakson immediately entered the race. He faced 8th District U.S. Congressman Mac Collins and businessman Herman Cain in the primary.WEB, Pettys, Dick, Isakson Wins GOP Primary For Georgia's Senate Seat,weblink washingtonpost.com, WP Company, LLC., 22 July 2020, It was initially thought Isakson would face a difficult primary since many socially conservative Republicans still felt chagrin at Isakson's declared support for abortion rights in 1990. However, he won the Republican primary with 53%, with Cain a distant second and Collins third, averting the need for a runoff. In the general election, he easily defeated the Democratic candidate, 4th District Congresswoman Denise Majette, by 18 points. Isakson's election marked the first time in Georgia's history that both of the state's U.S. Senate seats had been held by Republicans, as Saxby Chambliss had won the other seat by defeating Nunn's successor, Max Cleland, two years earlier.WEB, List of United States senators from Georgia,weblink Wikipedia.org, 24 July 2020, {{Circular reference|date=August 2020}}2010
