ATLANTA — The economy was the dominant issue for many Georgia voters this midterm election, as generational-high inflation squeezed bank accounts and drove up the prices of household goods.
The dueling economic stances of U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock and Republican Herschel Walker have also shaped the Dec. 6 runoff that will decide the final race of the 2022 campaign cycle.
Although Warnock has downplayed his ties to President Joe Biden, his economic policy revolves around support for some of the White House’s most significant legislative priorities.
