Greger, Libertarian candidate Chase Oliver will probably help Warnock out along with independents which today are backing Warnock by a around 46-36 depending on the poll. Most of Oliver’s support are coming from Independents, 6% and Republicans 4% with Democrats adding a single point. If these numbers hold, I’d expect Warnock to win by 5 plus points and avoid a runoff. RCP averages gives Warnock a 3.8-point lead which I don’t think will shrink. I sure it will only grow.
Oliver’s support from Republican may grow beyond the current 4%. Oliver gives the anti-Trump, conservative Republicans someone to vote for without having to pull the lever for the liberal Warnock. Keep in mind, Georgia has a runoff system, if no candidate receives 50% plus one vote, there will be a runoff 3 weeks after the general election. A runoff is possible. It was in a runoff that both Democrats Ossoff and Warnock won their senate seats.
It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
