A new internal GOP poll suggests tight prez, Senate races in Georgia
Source: Atlanta Journal-Constitution
An internal poll conducted by a group backing Gov. Brian Kemp showed a deadlocked presidential race in Georgia and tight contests for both U.S. Senate seats, underscoring the challenges Republicans face keeping the state in the GOP column.
The poll pegged Joe Biden at 47% of support and President Donald Trump with 46%, within the margin of error of 4 percentage points. A small number of voters just 5% - said they were undecided and 2% declined to answer.
U.S. Sen. David Perdue led Democratic frontrunner Jon Ossoff by a 43-41 margin, also within the margin of error, in his re-election bid. Libertarian Shane Hazel logged 7% of the vote and 8% were undecided. Ossoffs top rivals werent tested in the GOP poll.
And the pollster pronounced the November special election for appointed Republican U.S. Sen. Kelly Loefflers seat wide open. Republican U.S. Rep. Doug Collins (19%), Loeffler (18%) and Democrat Matt Lieberman (17%) were in a jumble at the top of the 21-candidate race, while Raphael Warnock, backed by national Democrats, was at 9%. About one-quarter of voters were undecided.

Seems to me that these races are there for the GOP to steal. They'll do anything. We've seen it too many times.
