Former President Barack Obama returned to Atlanta Thursday night to boost Democratic U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock in his runoff election with Republican Herschel Walker.

More than a million people have already voted before the Tuesday runoff, but the clock is ticking to get more voters back to the polls just a few weeks after the last election.

At Pullman Yards, a warehouse-turned-event venue, Obama urged voters not to let up.
