Historic early voting numbers are underway in next month’s Georgia Senate runoff election between Republican Herschel Walker and Democratic incumbent Senator Raphael Warnock.
The campaign has been the most vicious election of the 2022 midterm election cycle. Walker in particular has endured numerous scandals, and his campaign faced another on Wednesday when Geoff Duncan, the Republican Lieutenant Governor of Georgia, revealed he did not vote for his party’s candidate.
“I showed up to vote this morning,” Duncan told CNN’s John Berman. “I was one of those folks who got in line and spent about an hour waiting, and it was the most disappointing ballot I’ve ever stared at in my entire life since I started voting.”
“I had two candidates that I just couldn’t find anything that made sense for me to put my vote behind, and so I walked out of that ballot box showing up to vote but not voting for either one of them,” Duncan said.
Duncan, a frequent critic of former president Donald Trump, did not seek re-election with Governor Brian Kemp who himself won sweeping re-election in the Nov. 8th election.
Georgia voters head to the polls on Dec. 6th to finally decide the election. Democrats already won control of the Senate in 2023.
