'The people have spoken,' said Warnock in his acceptance speech. 'I'm ready to stand up for workers, to stand up for women, to stand up for our children. I'm ready to build a stronger Georgia,' he added to wide applause. His Republican challenger, Herschel Walker, conceded defeat, saying his campaign had fallen short.

President Biden said on Twitter he had called Warnock and congratulated him on his victory, saying: 'Tonight Georgia voters stood up for our democracy, rejected Ultra MAGAism, and most importantly: sent a good man back to the Senate'
