Sen. Raphael Warnock holds a slight lead in the race for a Senate seat in Georgia, according to a poll that finds the Democrat ahead among young people and early voters while Republican challenger Herschel Walker performs well among older residents and those waiting to cast their ballots on Dec. 6.
The Emerson College Polling/The Hill survey found Mr. Warnock leading, 49% to 47%, over Mr. Walker with 4% undecided.
“Warnock’s base lies with voters under 50 — a 55% majority support him for re-election — whereas Walker holds a similar 55% majority among voters over 50,” said Spencer Kimball, executive director of the poll.
