Poll: Herschel Walker Leads Raphael Warnock in Tight Georgia Senate Race
Ashley Oliver 6 Apr 2022
Republican Herschel Walker holds a narrow lead over incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) in a hypothetical matchup in the race for U.S. Senate in Georgia, according to a poll published Wednesday.
The poll, taken by Emerson College Polling and the Hill from April 1 to 3, found Walker with a four-point edge over Warnock. Walker received 49 percent support compared to Warnock’s 45 percent support, while six percent of respondents said they were undecided on a candidate.
The poll was conducted among 1,013 registered voters and had a margin of error of plus or minus three percent.
Walker, a former University of Georgia football star and Heisman Trophy winner, has for months polled narrowly ahead of Warnock, and always within the polls’ margins of errors, indicating a highly competitive general election is on the horizon. The race will also be closely watched nationally as it is one of just a handful that could determine next year’s Senate majority.
While the general election poll results are close, Walker continues to be seen as a shoo-in for the Republican primary, holding a wide lead — albeit a slimmed-down one — over his challengers.
In the primary, Walker came in at 57 percent, followed by Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black with 13 percent and several others candidates with single-digit support. Sixteen percent of respondents said they were undecided.
The Republican primary poll questions were conducted among 509 likely primary voters and had a margin of error of plus or minus 4.3 percent.

This is going to be another exceptionally close race. The midterm dynamic may tip it in our direction.

A lot depends on how honest the election is.

Indeed. Walker will need an extra 5% of the vote (at least) to overcome the inevitable fraud.

Agree with both points
This isn’t 2020

If he's leading with registered voters, I wonder what the real lead is with likely voters.

Is the Dim "steal the Georgia election" still in place?

Walker's going to be a bad choice for the Republicans.
Why should we be choosing Senate candidates the same way the dem-communists pick Supreme Court nominations...?
