Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) and GOP challenger Herschel Walker will head to a runoff next month for the Senate seat in Georgia, according to forecaster Decision Desk on Wednesday.
State election officials already predicted the race would advance to a Dec. 6 runoff earlier on Wednesday. While Warnock was ahead of Walker by a slim margin, he failed to breach the 50 percent threshold that prevents a runoff election from occurring.
