The Georgia Senate race, one of the most consequential races of the 2022 midterm elections, will go to a runoff. Proponents of the two-party system blame Libertarian Party candidate Chase Oliver for siphoning off votes that would've otherwise contributed to a conclusive victory for incumbent Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock or Republican candidate and former football star Herschel Walker.
Oliver received just over 2 percent of the vote; neither Walker nor Warnock exceeded the 50 percent threshold required to declare victory. Does that make Oliver a spoiler? "You can't spoil what's already rotten," he tells Reason.
