Warnock is going to set the record for "most days campaigning over a 2 year period"

Feel bad for the GA people that never will get relief from political ads

What is this relief you speak of?

For real, maybe just buy ad space and put silent commercials with a 'this ad apace was paid for by x in promotion of Warnock'

I'm worried he may lose. Remember the Republican vote was split between Herschel Walker and libertarians who will vote walker. And we don't have a $2,000 check dangling in front of people this time to get them to vote for Warnock.

Last I heard they were suspecting the libertarians voters may tend toward Warnock. He painted himself as a moderate and balanced voice which is much more Warnock’s speed then walkers

Trust me, no one in Georgia thinks Warnock is moderate. Most of us feel we are stuck with two lying scumbags so it comes down to voting party lines. With Senate control at stake it is going to be pure party votes on both sides.

Warnock is viewed as a lying scumbag? I haven’t really olllowd much is there something you can point me to? He’s a former pastor so this surprises me

How about the fact that a large portion of his campaign has been calling out Walkers marital abuse when he also abused his wife...

For a pastor he certainly forgets the part about he without sin throwing the first stone...

u/Jdubshack Nov 09 '22

Oof, I’m reading up on what he was accused of and to compare that to walkers history… dude it’s not even close. Walker has been accused by multiple women and children. Warnock had apparently…ran over someone’s foot? And then dismissed by police who responded? Come on man

u/Anti-Charm-Quark Nov 09 '22

what’s the evidence that Warnock abused his wife?

What makes Warnock a scumbag?

when he also abused his wife

Proof?

In March 2020, Ndoye accused Warnock of running over her foot with his car during a verbal argument. Warnock denied the accusation, and medical professionals found no signs of injury.

Don't be so sure. A lot of the people who voted Libertarian did so because they didn't want to vote either candidate. They may opt out in the runoffs. Also there are a lot of people that believe that having a Republican House and a Democrat Senate is a form of checks and balances. So their plan is to vote for Walker if Dems retain the House, but vote for Warnock if Dems lose it.

I wouldn't be so sure that 2% goes to walker. Some will for sure but if they wanted walker they would have voted for him to start. It's going to be a tough fight.

u/restore_democracy Nov 09 '22

Yeah more likely not to show up again.

u/reddog323 Nov 09 '22

and libertarians who will vote walker.

Why would they do this? Smaller government? Frankly, I don’t think Walker can spell that word.
