ATLANTA — In the last days before Tuesday’s runoff, Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., is stepping up efforts to court a crucial constituency for his base: college students.
The Democrat has held at least five events targeting young people across the state in as many days. He kicked things off Monday with a student press conference at his alma mater, Morehouse College, and continued with stops at Kennesaw State University, Fort Valley State University, Albany State University and the University of West Georgia.
Earlier in November, Warnock headlined packed events at Georgia Tech and Emory University, two Atlanta-area schools he hadn’t visited during the 2022 general election cycle. His opponent, Republican candidate Herschel Walker, has not held any events aimed at younger voters during the runoff period.
