BTRTN: For the Next Seventeen Days, Georgia Better Be on Our Minds
Born To Run The Numbers worries that because control of the Senate has already been determined, Democrats may relax and not be laser-focused on winning the Georgia run-off. BTRTN examines all the reasons that a win in Georgia is extremely important.

Excerpts: "...The most worrisome headline about the battle for control of the Senate in 2024? The Democrats will face a daunting Senate map, defending incumbencies in 23 of the 33 seats, including three states that Joe Biden lost in 2020 (Ohio, West Virginia, and Montana) and seven other states Biden won by less than ten points (Pennsylvania, Nevada, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, and Maine). It will be a herculean task to win each and every one of these seats but
a victory in Georgias run-off for Raphael Warnock on December 6 gives Democrats a sliver of breathing room in this daunting electoral environment...
"Lets move on to what may be the most important reason to make sure Raphael Warnock wins: Hershel Walker is unqualified for this job... All in all, Hershel Walkers campaign seems to be a tour-de-farce, the product of a truant high school class-clown bent on making a mockery of the class president election....Walkers own conservative son howled publicly about his fathers hypocrisy. Christian Walker did not mince words: I know my mom and I would really appreciate if my father Herschel Walker stopped lying and making a mockery of us. Youre not a family man when you left us to bang a bunch of women, threatened to kill us, and had us move over 6 times in 6 months running from your violence.
"If you need a final reason to do anything you can to help elect Raphael Warnock, how about this: he is a good human being, far better prepared and far richer in experience to serve as a United States Senator than Hershel Walker."
