After four more weeks of campaigning and tens of millions more advertising dollars, the last Senate seat has been decided. Incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock defeated Republican challenger Herschel Walker with just over 51% percent of the vote.
This long and hard-fought U.S. Senate race has proven to be the most expensive of the 2022 midterm cycle.
Voters had a minimum of five early voting days last week – and after a lawsuit, some counties in Georgia opened precincts for Saturday voting after Thanksgiving. This means that by Tuesday, more than 1.8 million voters in Georgia had already cast their ballots through early voting or mail-in ballots.
But for some folks there is just nothing like casting your ballot, in person, on election day.
Our Digital Producer Zachary Bynum is a Georgia voter himself, and he went out to vote yesterday in Savannah during his lunch hour, so we heard from him. Then, we dig into Georgia politics with Stephen Fowler, reporter for GPB News covering state and local politics and host of the Battleground: Ballot Box podcast.
