Thurmond was the underdog in trying to become the first African-American to serve Georgia in the U.S. Senate. Thurmond claimed, "Polls are irrelevant. As everyone knows, the only poll that counts is the election on November 2." Isakson defended his record, saying, "Big business is not evil. If you didn't have big business, you wouldn't have jobs in America today." Despite the fact all political prognosticators classified the race as being safe for Isakson by August 20, he stated that Thurmond was a potentially formidable candidate, and that he would take nothing for granted.
