Georgia’s tossup Senate race will continue in December as both Sen. Raphael Warnock (D) and Herschel Walker (R) head into a runoff election, the Associated Press projected Wednesday.

Warnock won his seat back in 2020 during a special election to fulfill the remainder of retiring Sen. Johnny Isakson’s (R) term. During his short tenure, Warnock has supported policies like raising the minimum wage and capping insulin prices. 

Walker’s chaotic campaign saw one controversy after another as the former NFL player’s messy past came to light. After Walker pledged himself against abortion rights — even suggesting a total ban with no exceptions — several women came forward to share how Walker paid for their abortions after they said he got them pregnant. Walker has also been criticized by his own campaign for blatantly lying about many things, including claiming to be a cop.
