EXCERPT:
While Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) maintains his lead in recent polling in Georgia’s Senate race, his gubernatorial ballot line counterpart, former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, is neck-and-neck in her race against GOP businessman Rick Jackson.
The Democrats running in Georgia’s top elections are facing quite different circumstances despite their similar statewide campaigns, recent surveys show. Ossoff’s name recognition, status as an incumbent, and fundraising abilities have boosted his candidacy in the purple state, while Bottoms battles Jackson for the large portion of undecided voters in the gubernatorial race.
Jackson edged out Bottoms by 0.5 percentage points in a recent Wick poll. The poll showed Jackson with 43.2% support from surveyed voters, compared to Bottoms’s 42.7%, with 14.1% undecided.
