United States Senate election in Georgia, 2022
Ballotpedia ^ | 9/11/22

Posted on 11/09/2022 3:56:43 PM PST by Eleutheria5

Incumbent Raphael Warnock (D) and Herschel Walker (R) advanced to a runoff election on December 6, 2022. Warnock, Walker, and Chase Oliver (L) ran to represent Georgia in the U.S. Senate.

In Georgia, a general election advances to a runoff between the two top finishers if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote. Since none of the candidates received this level of support on November 8 in the general election, a runoff is scheduled to take place on December 6. Warnock won his 2021 special runoff election by a margin of 2 percentage points.

They couldn't cheat enough to counter the strong support for Walker.

Same thing happened in 2000. Dead people in the southern three Florida counties usually delivered the vote for Dems, but the PO'd Cubans over the Elian Gonzalez matter narrowly defeated the cheating. They tried all sorts of recount shenanigans, with hanging chads and bogus interpretations of small marks in the ballots, until finally the SCOTUS blew the whistle. Reason: The real voters just barely counterweighed the fake ones.

Same here. Enough counterweight to force a run-off. Stacy Abrams is not pleased.

Is the douchebag Losertarian gonna endorse Herschel or not? With his 2% there would have been no runoff.

It would show he’s a real mensch, if he did. There’s nothing in it for him to be a spoiler. And in these horrible times, it’s all about “what’s in it for me” with so many politicians.

If GOP can win Arizona or Nevada, it would be one hell of a run-off for control of the Senate.

Massive numbers of attack ads against Herschel funded by out-of-state Leftists.

I am not looking forward to the next month.

They, Democrats, decided the Senate seat was more important than a fat, gap-toothed behemoth who would get nothing done anyway. So all the mail ins concentrated more on the pimp preacher.

The Leftists are already planning to pump millions into the run off and dig up any garden tools they can to cripple Walker. They are POed about having this go to a run off. Trump better pump and dump in this one, if he wants any credibility in 2024!

This is why he kept a reserve. Use it, Donald. Georgia needs Hershel and must get rid of Warnock.

The media/democrats used to bitch/moan where all the money was coming from, when it came to Republican's advantage back in the day.

Funny, I don't hear it discussed at all, now that the dems obviously have a HUGE campaign dollar advantage.

Why is that?

...silly me

...trix are for kids...

GA changed the election laws after the big steal in 2020.

Do they allow mail-in harvested ballots for the run-off in Georgia? That’s where the action is.
