Romney heading to Georgia

Former Gov. Mitt Romney is scheduled to campaign for U.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss in Georgia on Nov. 21, his PAC announced Tuesday.

Chambliss, a Georgia Republican, is currently locked in a runoff race against Democratic challenger Jim Martion.

Romney is slated to appear at political rallies in Atlanta and Savannah. He will also appear at a series of private fundraisers, according to his PAC.

"This is a critical election whose outcome will be important to maintaining a balance of power in the Senate," Romney said in a statement. "It is critical that Republicans safely retain the ability to filibuster in order to prevent the worst abuses of single party rule."

Romney has contributed $5,000 to Chambliss' runoff fund through his PAC. His PAC also donated $2,300 to Chambliss during his general election campaign.
