Warnock v Walker: winner of Georgia midterm runoff will make history

Whoever wins will be the first Black person elected from the state to a full Senate term

The winner of Tuesday's midterm election runoff for one of Georgia's two seats in the US Senate will make history.

Raphael Warnock became the first Black senator from Georgia when he won the 2020 presidential election runoff that helped tip the upper chamber into Democratic control, boosting the party in its capture of the House, the Senate and the White House.
