Senator Warnock won in a special election to fill the remainder of Johnny Isakson's seat - which expires January 2023. This means the seat is up for election in 2022, where Warnock will run as the incumbent and the GOP field that is now led by former running back Hershel Walker, who has been enthusiastically endorsed by Donald Trump.

"Herschel Walker doesn't come across as the ideal US Senator, but the main reason he's called 'stupid' seems to be because he speaks in a heavy regional dialect, with lots of colloquialisms. This alone does not make him 'stupid'––he sounds like countless Blacks in the Deep South," said Tracey.

Well, I don't know about the above but there is an African American dialect:





Edited to add: Regional dialects are common. I'm from the northeast and we have our own peculure way of speaking. For example: I couldn't care less = I could care less. So don't I = So do I. Etc.

I normally DO NOT support clergy for any elected office. No way, no how. But this is an exception. I sent Warnock some cash the day following the midterm election.

Walker just pulled ahead with 55% votes counted

Walker currently leading according to CNN estimates.

Looking like Warnock may pull this out with the Democratic population centers having the most votes out. Still a shame it's even this close.

I've seen enough. Warnock wins.

 

[SamAndreas]

Oh hey look at that, Dave Wasserman must have seen my post.

 

[superchuck500]

Thank God.

Walker is an inexcusable candidate. Shameful.

 

[superchuck500]

Republicans won just about everything else - the problem here for them was Hershel Walker.

People in Wasserman's feed questioning why he's calling it when it's "so close" obviously aren't looking at where the outstanding votes remain to be counted.

Or more specifically, his connection to Donald Trump. They kept him out of the state, but his stench never left.

CNN just called it for Warnock

CNN just called it for Warnock as well.

538 calling it. CBS calling it. NBC calling it. And the nail in the coffin, FOX news calling it.
