A new AARP poll exposes the crack in Jon Ossoff's Georgia re-election: he's up 23 points with swing voters over 50, but Republican Mike Collins actually leads 53-45 among all 50-plus voters — the exact bloc that decides midterms, where 88% say they're extremely motivated to vote versus just 62% of voters under 50. Larry O'Connor and AARP's John Hishta break down the Georgia Senate and governor races, the Keisha Lance Bottoms vs. Rick Jackson ticket-splitting, and why Social Security's 2032 solvency deadline is about to become every Senate candidate's problem.
