The hotly contested Georgia Senate race will head to a runoff between Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock and Republican former NFL player Herschel Walker, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said.
Neither candidate will garner the 50% of the vote needed to clinch the seat outright under state rules. The two Senate hopefuls will head to a Dec. 6 runoff.
“Right now we have less than 20,000 total votes still out to be counted. That’s not enough to change the race. So this is headed for a runoff,” Raffensperger said Wednesday morning on “The Brian Kilmeade Show.”
The Georgia race, one of the most competitive in the country, could help to determine control of the Senate, along with remaining races in Arizona and Nevada. Republicans need to win two of those contests, against Democratic incumbents, to take a majority in the Senate.

Oy vey! Gloria Allred should just rent an apartment.
Kick the fake Christian warnock out before it’s too late.
This 50% crap should be stopped. Majority wins..period.
Plenty of time to print enough ballots for Warnok
This run-off promises to be a modern-American shyte-show of ad hoc and illegal electoral manipulations, non-stop court rulings and lawsuits, and MSM propaganda and sloganeering.
This is the time for Trump, DeSantis and Walker to spend the next four weeks doing barn burner rallies all over Georgia.
Uh, 50% (+1) is a majority.
Catturd: Everyone chins up! We’re going to win the House and still have a chance in the Senate. That’s all we needed to stop the madness, Let the Democrat investigations begin. Blue states want to live broke, in filth, and crime. Let them have it. They’ll get what they voted for.
Hear hear!!!!
And will Kemp use some of his political capital to drag Walker across the line. What I would like to see is Trump, DeSantis and Kemp on the stage holding Walker’s arms in victory. Then once he wins they can go back to fighting each other. But I suspect one of the people I named would absolutely refuse to share the stage limelight with anyone..
I like
If it’s less than 50% plus one then it’s not a majority. Nothing wrong with run offs
If Trump thinks he has any future in GOP politics, he will pull out all the stops to get the guy he endorsed elected.
I love The Turd.
Naaaah Kemp ain’t that bad
With the libera(al)tarian out of the way, maybe Walker will beat Warnock in the runoff, assuming Raffensperger doesn’t want him gone. My recommendation, have numerous red counties hold back their numbers until Fulton, Cobb and DeKalb Counties belch out most of theirs.
This next vote isn't until Dec 6...It's not the way it should be. I shouldn't have to vote twice.
Maybe use some of that 100 million rumored to be in his super pac
