I mean, I guess it isn't horrible news but seriously. Have you heard Warnock speak? He is smart, compassionate, and knows the issues that are important to Georgians. Have you heard Walker speak? He is...not any of those things.
Kemp leads Abrams by 5 points? Come on Georgia. Do better!!
Obviously this is not aimed at Democrats in Georgia, especially not any DU members there. Still. Come on!!

(58,785 posts)That's not news, of course. They've elected tRump twice, endorsing, among many atrocities and betrayals, the Republican holocaust that's killed well over 1 million Americans so far.
The race will be determined by turnout, and that affected by what happens from now to November.
check your math 😉

(2,070 posts)Can you imagine Walker voting on SCOTUS nominees? Can you imagine him debating or discussing anything on the floor of the US Senate? He doesnt know anything about any policy matter. What if he needs to understand the finer points of a treaty the Senate May vote on? Senators might meet with foreign leaders? He doesnt even know where Canada is.
America is finished if we can send a guy like Walker to the US Senate. Thats not hyperbole.

(10,435 posts)Last night I posted about Sen. Warnock's appearance with Lawrence O'Donnell. https://www.democraticunderground.com/100216797871 My commentary about the problems that will be caused by Georgia republicon's immediate rush to outlaw methods Democrats win with brought complaints that I was being negative, and Warnock is sure to win.
Well, he sure DESERVES to win. But that's no guarantee, even if he gets more votes. If GA republicons weren't corrupt, Stacy Abrams would be Governor, wouldn't she.

(11,744 posts)I still can't believe that there was no conflict of interest for a candidate for governor to also be the Secretary of State responsible for the elections and then to squeak out a "win" like that?

(10,274 posts)It's nothing but political trolling, the single most embarrassing candidacy in memory. It shows how unserious Republicans are about governing and how little they care about the people they represent.

(11,744 posts)Walker has a chance of winning. He should be a laughing stock and the Republicans should be ashamed and being laughed out of any leadership position for putting Walker up, but they aren't and even though it is only one poll, in June of an election year for November, the fact that they are tied is ridiculous.
Cynical or not, they have no shame or doubt about standing up this candidate who can't even articulate a policy to save his life, who said, literally, "If evolution is true, why are there still apes". He has a chance of beating Raphael Warnock.
