Quick post to say multiple networks have called the Georgia Senate race for Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) over former sportsball player Herschel Walker.
At this writing, with 97% of the vote in, Warnock leads Walker by more than 95,000 votes.
More reporting tomorrow but you can follow the final vote counting at the New York Times here.
Sen. Raphael Warnock thanked his mother at his victory speech: "She grew up in the 1950s in Waycross, Georgia, picking somebody else's cotton and somebody else's tobacco. But tonight, she helped pick her youngest son to be a United States senator." https://t.co/IraSKhFkBg pic.twitter.com/u0Qo5mvC4X
