Summary

Georgia voters are again headed to the polls as Senator Raphael Warnock faces a runoff with former football star Herschell Walker. Warnock was first elected to the Senate nearly two years ago when he defeated Senator Kelly Loeffler, also in a runoff, held on January 5th, 2021. In Georgia, runoffs are triggered when no candidate receives over 50 percent of the vote. With Warnock and Walker locked in a neck-and-neck race, former Senator Kelly Loeffler joins The FOX News Rundown Podcast to share her unique perspective on the state of the election in Georgia, drawing from her previous experiences in a runoff and serving Georgia on Capitol Hill. Loeffler sheds light on Republican efforts to get voters out to polls, as some Georgia voters have grown wary of another election and season of campaign ads, while some moderate Republicans remain up for grabs, as Governor Brian Kemp significantly outpaces Walker in November's election. The holiday season may be rough for many families as inflation still nears a 40-year high. However, even the groups and charities that many rely on are struggling to cope with rising prices and the subsequent increased demand. Last year, more than 53 million people sought help to put food on their table and the US Agriculture Department says 34 million people are considered food insecure. So, how are food pantries and other services answering the needs of so many? Chief Operating Officer at Feeding America Katie Fitzgerald discusses the challenge of operating food pantries across the country, how they have prepared for a spike in food insecurity around the holidays, and what donations they are most desperate for.
