Georgia runoff: Here are the six counties that will decide if SenatorWarnock or HerschelWalker wins runoff
Experts are keeping an eye on Republican versus Democratic turnout in six key counties as campaigns must overcome possible voter fatigue and a shorter time frame to rouse their bases. Candidates must also grapple with waning motivation as Democrats have already secured a Senate majority, meaning voters may view the election as less consequential than November’s race.
Walker faces increased challenges this time, as he doesn’t have Gov. Brian Kemp on the ballot to help lure GOP voters to the polls. That could prove challenging for the Republican candidate, as roughly 203,000 voters cast a ballot for Kemp’s reelection in November but didn’t vote for Walker. For Democrats, it’s essential for the party to win DeKalb, Fulton, and Clayton counties as the areas lean heavily Democratic and have become reliable strongholds for the party in recent years. Each of the counties is located close to the Atlanta area and has large black populations, according to the Census Bureau.Meanwhile, Republicans are courting voters in the Cherokee, Forsyth, and Hall counties, which all sit close to each other and hold majority white populations.
