Atlanta | US Senator Raphael Warnock beat Republican challenger Herschel Walker in a Georgia runoff election that fortified the Democrats’ Senate majority and handed the Republicans another loss to cap a disappointing midterm election season.
Mr Warnock’s projected victory was narrow. With 99 per cent of the estimated vote counted, he led Mr Walker, a former football star backed by former president Donald Trump by 50.8 per cent to 49.2 per cent, Edison Research said.
