I Can't See Georgia Voters Picking Herschel Walker Over Raphael Warnock

So former Heisman Trophy winner, NFL/USFL player and steadfast Trump supporter Herschel Walker has moved back to Georgia to seek the GOP nomination to run against Raphael Warnock in the 2022 U.S. Senate race.

Now I know I only lived in Georgia for 7 months, but I cannot see Georgia voters backing Walker over Warnock. Walker has lived in Texas for decades and thinks he's entitled to serve in the U.S. Senate representing Georgia on Donald Trump's say-so whereas Warnock has spent the majority of his life in Georgia. What does it say about the Georgia Republican Party if it feels the need to nominate someone who just moved there five minutes ago? For that matter, I cannot see Walker going toe to toe with Warnock in a debate.

Of course, what Georgia voters might say might be different than what the Republican controlled legislature might have to say given their expanded powers under Georgia's new voter law. The 2022 election will be the first test of the law. 

But all other things being equal and fair, I simply cannot see Georgia voters willfully choosing Herschel Walker over Raphael Warnock.
