republican who did not win in december on a state-wide ticket. you said on the campaign trail recently a choice. who do you want to fight for you in the senate? a guy who represents values like her vol walker or somebody who voted with president biden 96% of the time. does herschel walker share your values? listen, when i m talking about going to washington, d.c. and fighting for what georgians need i m talking about the border, 40-year high inflation. astronomical gas prices since joe biden took office and the agenda raphael warnock supported up there. to me it s that simple in this race, and that s why i m voting for herschel walker. i want somebody to go up there and fight for our state and fight for our citizens. not fight to support a president that really, in my view, is not upholding values of what georgians want. you think herschel walker does that when it comes to values? i think he will do that in
