A survey of 1,000 very likely voters conducted by The Hill and Emerson College found that 45% of them would vote for Walker.

Libertarian candidate Chase Oliver, who has the support of 1% of voters, could draw votes from both major candidates and increase the likelihood that neither reaches 50%.

If no candidate gets 50% of the vote in next week's election, there will be a second round on December 6.

More voters seem to have decided which candidate they want, with 4% undecided, compared to 2.4% in the previous poll.

According to FiveThirtyEight, the candidates are separated by less than two-tenths of a point, as the race has narrowed as Election Day approaches.

The allegations that Walker paid for two women's abortions while publicly supporting limitations on the procedure don't seem to have hurt his reputation. Walker has been accused of being a hypocrite over the scandals in a recent ad campaign, but has mostly shied away from mentioning it on the campaign trail. Democrats and Republicans from outside the state have coalesced around each candidate as the parties are in a dead-heat contest for control of the Senate, which could shift to the Republicans if one seat changes hands. In recent weeks, Scott and Cotton have been campaigning with Walker, and Obama was in Atlanta over the weekend.

After neither candidate won an absolute majority in the general election, Jon Ossoff was elected to the Senate. Georgia election laws required a second round of voting if one candidate didn't get 50% of the vote. Part of a sweeping voting law that GOP lawmakers said was an effort to enhance election integrity but that critics said was a restriction on voting was shortened to four weeks.
