The senate race in Georgia will move to a runoff election after no candidate claimed over 50% of the vote. The highly competitive contest between incumbent Democrat Sen. Raphael Warnock and GOP candidate Herschel Walker forms a key part of both parties' plan to control the Senate.

In Tuesday's election Warnock held a narrow lead over Walker, but not enough to secure a victory. The runoff election will be held Dec. 6, in accordance with new election laws passed in the state in 2021.
