While Georgia votes continue to be counted in the Democratic primary race for Georgia’s Senate seat currently held by David Perdue, it appeared to be headed into a runoff between Teresa Tomlinson and Jon Ossoff on August 11.

In Georgia, candidates are required to win 50% of the vote to avoid a runoff.
