Rep. Collins: Conservative Georgia voters have 'got to' vote in runoffs

Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., highlights the importance of Georgia Senate runoffs on 'Sunday Morning Futures.'

President-elect Joe Biden will likely visit Georgia to boost campaign efforts for the two Democratic candidates in the January Senate runoff, according to his top aide.

The president-elect’s newly named Chief of Staff Ron Klain said on Sunday on ABC's “This Week” that Biden is likely to visit Georgia, as Democratic victories for both Senate candidates would result in a 50-50 split in the upper chamber of Congress.

Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock performed well enough to earn runoff elections and are facing Republican Sens.Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue respectively.

Warnock won more of the vote than Loeffler – 32.9% to 25.9% - in a crowded field. Ossoff won less of the vote than Perdue, but the margin was incredibly fine – Perdue winning 49.7% to 47.9%.
