Georgia Primary Election Runoff results

Video will be available shortly.

Part of Augusta is getting a new state representative in January.

Hardie Davis won the District 122 democratic runoff, with a big victory over former city commissioner Richard Colclough.

With all 15 precincts reporting, Davis took 68 percent of the vote.

Only about 1500 people voted.

There's no Republican opponent in November, so Davis, a local pastor, is in.

Incumbent representative Pete Warren lost in the July primary. He will serve until the new legislative session.

In the statewide Georgia runoffs, Jim Martin won the Democratic runoff for lieutenant governor against Greg Hecht. He'll face Republican Casey Cagle in November.

In the secretary of state runoffs, Gail Buckner won the democratic nomination. She faces Republican Karen Handel in November to succeed Cathy Cox.

And in the Republican runoff for agriculture commissioner, Gary Black won. He faces longtime Democratic commissioner Tommy Irvin in November.
