... he's running for re-election in 2016. This was posted in the GA mega-thread, but I thought it should be archived in the Congressional Elections board as well.

Isakson is very articulate, personable, and a true gentleman. I voted for Nunn, yet have a hard time seeing myself voting against Isakson.

Fun, random video -- Sen Isakson paying his respects to Sen. Robert Byrd (D-WV): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-k0pYQH5cQ

Isakson probably wins with 55%/56% of the vote. Georgia's 2014 electorate was very similar to the 2012 electorate and Democrats still lost big. Safe R.

I think Isakson wins by around 7-10%, but not for the reason of the electorate. What killed Nunn and Carter was lack of young turnout - I don't think that'll be an issue as much in a presidential year. What could save Isakson is the horribly depleted Democrat bench in Georgia.
