I’ve been upfront about the fact that I’ve been very pessimistic about this year’s Senate race in Georgia. Frankly, I’ve had my concerns about the Peach State in general since they elected not one but two Democrats to the U.S. Senate in 2021, giving Democrats the majority in the upper chamber of Congress. Still, I believed it was just a fluke and assumed we’d be regaining those seats in no time. But Donald Trump endorsed Herschel Walker, who hasn’t exactly been the most formidable opponent, and I admit, after months of trailing Warnock in the polls, I figured Walker doomed the GOP in this race.
Until recently, anyways. After Walker had a solid performance in his debate with Sen. Warnock, he not only closed the gap with Warnock but took the lead. Earlier this week, a poll from Trafalgar/Daily Wire showed Walker ahead by just over two points.
There have been two more polls since then, and both show Walker ahead. The latest Rasmussen poll has Walker up five points, and a new InsiderAdvantage poll has Walker up three points. That makes three polls this week showing Walker in the lead.
Walker also leads in the RealClearPolitics average by 1.6 points. Two weeks ago, Warnock had an RCP average lead of 2.4 points.
This week, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer also appeared to concede that Walker is headed toward victory. “The state where we’re going downhill is Georgia,” Schumer told Biden in a hot mic moment. “It’s hard to believe that they will go for Herschel Walker.”

Not according to the sHill...../s
Look for shenanigan’s on election night by the Democrats. (ie another pipe burst at a polling station on election night).
He came off looking like Urkel.
It’s not a good look for someone wanting to remain a Senator.
Herschel did much better than expected. I heard that Newt was working with him, but never saw anything that confirmed. Does anyone have anything on that?
Woo-hoo!!!
Herschel Walker paid for my abortion, too. Men can get pregnant, yanno.
The Shill poll is full of shitte!

Yes - - the Slimes Push Pull with Warnock ahead among Indys by 12 was ludicrous
I see another woman who claims she had an abortion paid by Walker just came out of the woodwork.
I proudly voted for Herschel yesterday.
50% remember that for Georgia. Otherwise we do it all over again December 6th. White republican counties in GA are voting in record numbers, black Democrat counties are not.
Once I saw that New Yawk Slimes/Siena College “poll” a couple days ago, I knew Walker was on a roll and was leading.
I proudly voted for Herschel last week.
I don’t understand the liberal fixation, with allegations that Herschel Walker was involved/paid for, someone’s abortion.
The liberals are in favor of abortion. So why would they tell us we are supposed to be shocked, just shocked, over an abortion?
In their view, we are supposed to be so shocked, that we will vote for Warnock, who is explicitly in favor of abortion??? What the heck???
Obama brought attention to Walker by criticizing him with a ridiculous statement about Walker not being an airplane pilot. Walker’s response was pretty funny. If you haven’t watched it, you should find it and take a look. Many people parrot the media’s talking point that Walker is just an ignorant southern hick with no grasp on the issues.
If people go to actually look at Walker’s speeches, they will find that the left has lied to them (again).
The video of Walker is embedded in this article.
Kind of biased. Until they compare it to three gay polls, I’m not convinced. /s Couldn’t resist.
