Nate Cohn says it’s hard to come up with good reasons that Herschel Walker (R) would do better in the Senate runoff than he did a month ago.
“The core issue for Mr. Walker is simple: He is a flawed and unpopular candidate, while Mr. Warnock, by contrast, is fairly popular. And unlike in the November election, the two are the only candidates on the ballot in most of the state. This poses a much greater challenge to Mr. Walker in the runoff election than it did in the general election.”
“It’s easy to imagine several kinds of voters who backed Mr. Walker in November but who won’t be showing up this time.”
