DECATUR, GA — The results are in, and DeKalb County has made its selections in the 2022 general election.

In the U.S. Senate race between incumbent Democrat Raphael Warnock and Republican Herschel Walker, neither candidate met the voting requirement of 50 percent plus one, so the pair is projected to meet in a Dec. 6 runoff.
