Georgia Senate race remains neck and neck as Walker, Warnock enter final week: poll
Fox News
Herschel Walker and Sen. Raphael Warnock are locked in a "dead heat" in the Georgia Senate race, a new poll shows. Gov. Brian Kemp has solidified his lead against Stacey Abrams.
Despite the close race, the poll indicates Walker already has an approval rating problem, sitting at just 39%. Voters also remain skeptical of the former football pro's claims, with just 39% of respondents saying they view him as trustworthy. Anders Hagstrom is a reporter with Fox News Digital covering national politics.
The poll was conducted by the University of Georgia's School of International and Public Affairs. Pollsters questioned 1,022 likely Georgia voters during live telephone interviews from October 16-27. The group emphasized that Walker's apparent slight lead over Warnock was "not statistically significant." Anders worked as a White House correspondent for the Daily Caller before joining Fox News Digital in 2022. There, he covered the opening months of former President Donald Trump's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the fallout of the 2020 election.
"In plain English, the U.S. Senate race is a dead heat," they wrote. Since joining Fox, he has covered national politics extensively, including the 2022 midterm elections and President Biden's efforts to counter global adversaries like Russia and China.
