Georgia 'is going to head to a runoff'

Democratic strategist Cyrus Garrett on why the Black male is the new swing voter, what Stacey Abrams is doing wrong and the reason Nov. 8 won't be the end of the 2022 election.

Democratic strategist Cyrus Garrett, who ran point for Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign in Georgia, has a wealth of knowledge on the purple Peach State and a bullshit-free approach that offers a clear-eyed sense of the state of play in both the governor and U.S. Senate races a month out.

I hope you’ll listen to every minute of this one — it’s worth it if you want to understand Georgia from a man who has worked its trenches and seen what was coming there before most everybody else.

Included in this #pod are Garrett’s thoughts on:

  • the likelihood that Raphael Warnock or Herschel Walker gets to 50.1% of the vote on Nov. 8 to avoid an extended Senate runoff campaign

  • why the Black male is the new swing voter

  • where Stacey Abrams’ has failed to succeed as a candidate

  • how Raphael Warnock is carving out a different message than most other Democrats

  • the key difference between Georgia and Nevada this cycle

You can also listen to this episode on Spotify or Apple Podcasts. And if you like it, I’d appreciate you tossing Too Close To Call a star-filled rating.
