Georgia’s Senate Runoff
The race that will determine who has leverage in Washington
What’s At Stake:
The importance of character and personability. Committee majorities. A Democratic buffer. Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema’s influence. The money of top donors. These factors will be decided by the registered voters of Georgia.
Our Outlook for the 2022 Georgia Senate Runoff Election:
Raphael Warnock (D) is expected to win by 1-5%.
Major Campaign Issues
Both candidates have reused a lot of their messaging before the midterms and carrying it through to this runoff. Incumbent Senator Raphael Warnock (D) believes that Herschel Walker (R) is not qualified enough to take on his job. Meanwhile, Walker has chastised Warnock for the increase in inflation rates and a decline of the US economy. However, this runoff will be decided by turnout, not whoever has the more relevant purpose.
