Raphael Warnock (D.), according to a poll out Thursday\u2014the third survey in a row to find Walker ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Forty-seven percent of likely voters said they are backing the former NFL star, versus 44 percent for Warnock, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox5atlanta.com\/news\/new-insideradvantage-fox-5-poll-kemp-widens-lead-over-abrams-senate-race-remains-tight\">according<\/a> to the Fox 5\/Insider Advantage poll.<\/p>\n<p>The findings indicate that the momentum has shifted in the highly competitive race since July, when the same poll found Warnock up by 3 points. Walker now leads by half a point in the RealClearPolitics polling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/epolls\/2022\/senate\/ga\/georgia-senate-walker-vs-warnock-7329.html\">average<\/a>, after spending much of the summer trailing Warnock.<\/p>\n<p>Walker\u2019s campaign said the candidate is &#8220;taking absolutely nothing for granted and will keep working hard every day to make sure every Georgian knows he is the right choice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yet another poll shows that no amount of dark money that Raphael Warnock raises from California can buy him this Senate seat,&#8221; Walker\u2019s spokesman Will Kiley told the <em>Washington Free Beacon<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The Fox 5\/Insider Advantage survey, which was conducted earlier this week, has a 4.2 percent margin of error. It is the third poll in a row showing Walker with a small lead in the race.<\/p>\n<p>In late August, a poll by Emerson College found Walker up 2 points, and a Trafalgar Group poll found him up by 1 point.<\/p>\n<p>Republican governor Brian Kemp is also holding an 8-point lead against Democratic challenger Stacey Abrams, according to Fox 5\/Insider Advantage.
