re: Reverend Raphael Warnock

  John, we may have taken back the White House — but the fight for the Senate isn’t over yet: Reverend Raphael Warnock’s race has advanced into a runoff. In January, Georgia voters will head to the polls to cast their ballots one final time. When they do, we must make sure Rev. Warnock…
