GEORGIA — Incumbents in key Georgia races all cleared the 50 percent threshold needed to avoid a runoff, with Republicans leading all of the races Wednesday.

Both The New York Times and NBC News projected the following winners: Brian Kemp for governor, Chris Carr for attorney general, Brad Raffensperger for secretary of state and Burt Jones for lieutenant governor.

Rev. Raphael Warnock and challenger Herschel Walker are projected to go into a Dec. 6 runoff.
