Sen. Raphael Warnock won the Georgia Senate runoff Tuesday, boosting the Democratic majority in the upper chamber.
Warnock leaned heavily on a two-pronged campaign strategy spotlighting his two-year record as a collegial lawmaker who could work with the GOP while jabbing at rising questions about his rival’s character and competence.
"There are no excuses in life," Walker said at a watch party Tuesday night."I'm not going to make any excuses now." The pastor now makes history as Georgia's first Black senator elected to a full six-year term after going through a gauntlet of four high-profile races in about two years. But the former president was largely absent during most of the campaign, and especially during the final stretch.never joined Walker on the campaign trail for any in-person event as other high-profile Republicans did. He did host a "tele-rally" for the former football star on Monday night and posted on his social media site Truth Social.
"Georgia has grown impervious to President Trump’s charms," Whitlock said in a tweet Tuesday. "If he’s on a future ballot there I’d count the state in the blue column ."Whereas Republicans may have lacked a certain enthusiasm during the runoff, the stakes still meant something for progressive groups and activists in the state.
