The upcoming Georgia senate race is set between Democratic incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock and Republican challenger Herschel Walker. Walker has agreed to debate Sen. Warnock leading into the election this coming November. However, Warnock has officially committed to three televised debates, according to CBS 46, and touted his accomplishments during his tenure in a statement.
When the people of Georgia elected me, I committed to working hard for all Georgians, and thats what I have done: working to lower costs for Georgia families by capping the cost of prescription drugs, suspending the federal gas tax, and holding corporations accountable for price gouging, said Warnock in a statement. The people of Georgia will have to make a decision about who is best able to represent the people of Georgia. The debates are an opportunity for Georgians to see the clear choice they have in this important election.
Regarding the debates, Sen. Warnock may want to get a commitment in writing from Walker. While he ran for the Georgia Republican nomination for Senator, Walker showed up to no debates at all. It will instantly become must-see television if Walker agrees to all of these. Early polls show that the Warnock/Walker matchup is a close race for now.

And Chump can't get up there and debate for him either. (Not that it would be any help.)

(8,929 posts)the GOP isnt going to allow that. Their biggest challenge running Walker is hiding his stupidity from the public for 5 months.

(206,015 posts)Rachel Maddow said that Raphael Warnock is the most eloquent member of Congress, Herschel Walker didn't seem to know who John Lewis was. I do hope that these debates are on national TV...
