ATLANTA — While all eyes are on the presidential race between Donald Trump and Joe Biden, Georgia has its own set of races in the spotlight.
It's been a contentious battle for the state's two Senate seats, and a new poll shows that the numbers are so tight right now, they are too close to call.
Data was collected exclusively for 11Alive in a SurveyUSA Election Poll between Oct. 8 and Oct. 12. The information was released Tuesday.
About 900 adults statewide were interviewed - 793 are registered to vote in Georgia. Here is a look at the results:
In the contest for senior Senator from Georgia:
- Republican Incumbent David Perdue, 46%.
- Democratic challenger Jon Ossoff, 43%.
In an identical SurveyUSA poll two months ago, Perdue led by 3 points. Perdue leads by 3 points now.
The result is inside the survey's possible sources of error and cannot be considered statistically significant.
In the special election for the junior Senator from Georgia:
- Democratic challenger Raphael Warnock zooms to a possible lead, at 30%.
- Appointed Incumbent Republican Kelly Loeffler runs second at 26%.
- Republican Doug Collins, who wants for Nancy Pelosi to resign, runs third, at 20%.
- Others further back
Compared to an identical SurveyUSA poll two months ago, Warnock's support has nearly doubled, Loeffler and Collins are flat.
Warnock's 4-point advantage is still within the survey's possible sources of error and cannot be characterized as a "lead."
