Georgiaelection results

A repeat of the 2018 election is underway in the governor’s race with Gov. Brian Kemp (R) once again facing off against Democrat Stacey Abrams. Abrams, formerly the minority leader in Georgia’s House of Representatives, lost the bitterly fought 2018 contest by fewer than two points. Since the loss, Abrams has developed a national reputation as a voting rights activist through her Fair Fight PAC and the political landscape in Georgia has shifted significantly. The rematch is closely watched and considered a toss-up.

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D) is running for his first full term in office after winning his seat in a special election in a 2021 runoff, an outcome that flipped the Senate to Democratic control. His Republican challenger, Herschel Walker, is a former professional football player whose messy campaign has surfaced multiple controversial allegations and past indiscretions. Walker is also one of 15 election deniers running for the Senate this year. The race is considered a toss-up, reflecting Georgia’s electoral shift from solidly Republican to decidedly purple.

Incumbent Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) received national attention in 2020 after boldly refuting false claims of election fraud in the state from Donald Trump and other members of his own party. In the primaries, Raffensperger narrowly defeated his challenger, Rep. Jody Hice (R), an election denier who was backed by Trump. State Rep. Bee Nguyen (D) is his opponent in the general election, and she’s running with Stacey Abrams’s endorsement.
