A new Quinnipiac poll in Georgia finds Sen. Raphael Warnock (D) leading challenger Herschel Walker (R), 52% to 46%.
In the governor’s race, Gov. Brian Kemp (R) leads challenger Stacey Abrams (D), 50% to 48%.
Said pollster Tim Malloy: “No cushion and no comfort zone for either candidate as the Georgia governor’s race roars to a finish and with the vast majority of voters saying they’ve already made their choice, there’s little wiggle room for either candidate.”
