Georgia voters are heading to the polls for the final battle of the 2022 midterms — the runoff election between Senator Raphael Warnock, a Democrat, and his Republican opponent, Herschel Walker.
Both parties have their own challenges: Republicans have a candidate quality issue in Mr. Walker, and Democrats are concerned about the turnout of their voter coalition. One side, though, already seems resigned to losing.
Guest: Maya King (https://www.nytimes.com/by/maya-king?smid=pc-thedaily), a politics reporter covering the South for The New York Times.
Background reading:
On the eve of Georgia’s Senate runoff (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/05/us/politics/georgia-senate-runoff-election-day-turnout.html), Mr. Warnock warned his supporters about being overconfident, and Mr. Walker urged Republicans to flood the polls.
The runoff will answer a big question (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/05/us/politics/georgia-senate-race-democrats-republicans.html) — what’s more powerful: a candidate’s skills and experience, or the tug of political partisanship?
