HIRAM, Ga. — Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley had a message for the GOP faithful who had flocked to a Herschel Walker rally here: “America is counting on the people of Georgia.”
Judging from the crowded bank of television cameras and the scrum of photographers, the nation is certainly watching Georgia. News outlets from as far away as Japan and France trekked to west Georgia to see Walker, who polls say is running neck-and-neck with his Democratic opponent, Raphael Warnock.
As it did in 2021, control of the U.S. Senate could hinge on Georgia, and so, with just two days left until Election Day, attention from the national and international media is intensifying.
