Journalists predicted on Sunday that Sen. Raphael Warnock would win the Georgia Senate runoff because of campaign spending and already having control of the Senate.
CNN, ABC and NBC guests predicted a likely victory for Sen. Warnock on Tuesday and argued the Republicans lacked motivation.
NBC's Washington correspondent Yamiche Alcindor said Warnock was putting money into the race because"he knows he has to" and there are plenty of Republicans in Georgia who were planning to vote for Herschel Walker despite believing"he's a liar." "Two hundred thousand voters voted for Kemp and not for Warnock," she said."So the question is not only are those folks going to be coming back out for the guy who they dissed on the ballot the first time, but are the folks who actually just marked a straight Republican ticket even going to come back out when so much is not at stake for the Republicans, meaning the Senate majority. And if you look at what’s been invested or not invested over the past few weeks, outspent 2 to 1.
During ABC's"This Week," Associated Press executive editor Julie Pace also argued that the fact that Democrats already have control of the Senate and early voting numbers indicated a victory for Warnock.
