Georgia Republicans wont have a specific nominee for a couple more months, but the final two contenders are running slightly behind Democrat Michelle Nunn in Rasmussen Reports first look at the U.S. Senate race in Georgia.
A new statewide telephone survey of Likely Georgia Voters finds Nunn leading Congressman Jack Kingston 47% to 41%. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, while nine percent (9%) are undecided.
In a matchup with businessman David Perdue, Nunn earns 45% support to her GOP rivals 42%. Seven percent (7%) favor another candidate in this contest, and six percent (6%) are undecided.

Consider this scenario. The gop takes the senate. Everything continues to go downhill but now the media and the democrats can blame the republicans. So, Hillary wins and the democrats take back control of both houses in 2016.
Which would be better? Two more years of obama and Reid? Or two years of obama and McConnell then four years of Hillary and Reid? I’m not sure the gop taking the senate will be good for the country in the long run.
I remember the Nunn family. I remember her sniveling father besmirching the reputation Senator John G. Tower during his Senate hearing on his nomination as Secretary of Defense. Of course, there was no mention of Sams rolling a car into a ditch, blind drunk. Double standards even then. He went on to lucrative positions in the plutocracy. John Tower died in an airplane crash in Georgia. Let us rid ourselves of such people and their lineage.
So true. The 7th Dist will probably be 90/10 R.
Michelle Nunn has a better chance of being hit in a drone strike than getting elected to that senate seat.
It will either be Kingston or Perdue. Preferably Kingston.
Oh I’m not, that’s why I heavily advised against nominating a weak candidate like Paul Broun, who would have been at serious risk of losing.
But against a competent campaigner like Kingston (who I suggest is clearly the more conservative and electable choice in the GOP runoff), in what should be a good year, there is no way she should win.
She was too stupid to disavow the amnesty bill that even Isaakson and Chambliss voted against.
She touted Rubio and McCain as doing good work.
Every time she brings up “working together”, her GOP opponent should mention bipartisan gun control and doubling immigration.
Rasmussen is no longer Rasmussen. They lost Scott. Believe nothing they postulate.
