New Georgia Poll Is Bad News for Stacey Abrams, Worse for Raphael Warnock
Red State ^ | Aug 15, 2022 1:00 PM ET | Joe Cunningham

It should be expected that a Democrat who could not win her own state in a year the Republicans were not expected to do well would not have a snowball’s chance in a Georgia summer of winning a gubernatorial race in 2022. But it’s much tougher for incumbents, even in years their party is in power, to lose to candidates who are perceived as weak given past performance on the campaign trail.

Yet, a new poll out today shows that Stacey Abrams, who is polling eight points behind Governor Brian Kemp, can’t do any better than about 45 percent in the polls (today’s has her at 43.5 percent). The problem is that Warnock is only able to pick up the same amount of support. What’s worse for Warnock is that Herschel Walker hasn’t hit his ceiling yet.

The Phillips Academy Poll shows Warnock trending downward from his high of 50 percent in the beginning of July while Walker is continuing to trend upward from recent polling.

Warnock is leading by 64% among Black voters even though both Warnock and Walker are African American. Warnock also has strong support among low-income and urban voters, where he leads by 23% and 16% respectively. Conversely, Walker receives most of his support from rural voters, where he is up by 20%. Georgia’s suburban voters, a key voting block in the 2020 election, favor Walker by 5.1%.
That last sentence is a big red flag for the Warnock campaign. The suburbs helped turn Georgia’s two Senate seats blue in 2020 and when coupled with a resurgence of the rural vote in Georgia, a lot of whom stayed home in the 2020 runoff, that could potentially mean that Walker is actually about 2-3 points higher than where he is polling currently. …

All sense of decorum are off, She will steal this in plain site and then defend it from the “claimed victory” high ground.

On YouTube Warnock is running ads where he states that he's working with democrats and republicans to help with the supply chain. He's telling us that he supports helping American businesses instead of Chinese businesses. I know he's realizing the shift toward Walker.

Kemp won’t hurt himself with his reelection chances. He’ll do something to complain about the ballots or cheating.

I am voting FOR Herschel Walker. I’ll probably have to vote for Kemp to keep that gap-toothed heifer out, but I draw the line at Ratburger. I will not vote at all in that slot. Best I can do.

We’ll see.....remember they’ve put together the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics according to captain potatohead.

A question to GA voters. Think Kemp is going to try and bury the hatchet with Donald so he’ll campaign for him? Can Kemp overcome the inevitable voter fraud without having Trump endorse him?

Backstabbing Kemp should lose.

When people said after election night “Calm down. The Democrats don’t have control of the US Senate. And there are two George seats up the GOP may win.” they didn’t take seriously how totally crooked the system is.
Rigged.

Wonder if Soros will tell Abrams how much her vote total and margin percentage will be a few days before the election.

She is so stupid she will blurt it out to brag and then news will later say “Amazing how close she was to her final totals. In fact, exactly the total.”

I was going to write-in Taylor, but just can’t contribute to Abrams at all. So I may go ahead and vote for Kemp…depending on the outcome of his testimony at the Grand Jury and outcome. So that’s still undecided for me and my family really.

I’m writing in Hice, instead of voting for Ratburger.

Voting for Walker.
