But independents favored Warnock in the poll by 25 points, 61%-36%. Independent voters, however, will likely make up a smaller share of the electorate on Dec. 6 than they did on Election Day. The CNN survey suggested they would account for 17% of voters versus making up nearly a quarter of the electorate (24%) in the initial round of voting in Georgia.
But again, with the race so close, turnout will be the ballgame. In the initial round, Warnock edged out Walker by a little less than a point, 49.4%-48.5%.
CNN notes that voters under 35 largely prefer Warnock (74% to 25%), while those 65 or older favor Walker by 26 points (63% to 37%).
Younger white voters prefer Walker too, but not by much, while their elders favor Walker by a lot.
Younger White voters are far more closely divided than older White voters (52% Walker to 48% Warnock among White voters younger than 45, while 75% of White voters age 45 or older say they back Walker). Support for Warnock is about the same among younger and older Black voters.
So an electorate that includes a high concentration of younger voters and people of color would be a good sign for Warnock.
And anyone listening to Barack Obama give this hype speech in Georgia is likely fired up and ready to go.
