Warnock kicks off Georgia Senate runoff with broadsides against Walker, alleging 'disturbing history'
Warnock says Georgie Senate runoff is about competency and character
By Greg Norman | Fox News
Democratic incumbent Raphael Warnock kicked off his Georgia Senate runoff bid Thursday by tearing into Republican Herschel Walker, telling a crowd in Atlanta that his opponent has a "disturbing history pattern of violence against women" and "against his own family."
Warnock appeared to be referencing a claim from Walker’s ex-girlfriend that he allegedly threatened her life in 2012, which the Republican’s campaign has called "baseless."
"We've seen that Herschel Walker has a disturbing history pattern of violence against women, against his own family. And he takes and he refuses to take responsibility for that," Warnock said Thursday. "And he refuses even to answer questions. So, the question right now is this: is that who we want representing Georgia?"
The runoff between Warnock and Walker is scheduled for Dec. 6 after neither candidate captured 50% of the vote in Tuesday’s midterm election.
"This is not a race about Democrat and Republican. It's not a race of right vs. left. Fundamentally, this is a race, right or wrong, and who's right for Georgia and who's clearly wrong for Georgia," Warnock told his supporters.
"This race is about competence, and it's about character. When it comes to that, the choice could not be more clear between me and Herschel Walker," he added. "Some things in life are complicated. This ain't one of them."
Warnock also accused Walker of having "no vision for our state or for our country."
