ATLANTA (MyFOX ATLANTA) – With just two days to go before the Georgia Senate election, the man who sent it into a runoff talked about the race Sunday.

Back in November, Libertarian candidate Allen Buckley picked up nearly 3.5 percent of the vote in the election.  Buckley got enough votes to send the Senate race into a runoff.

Buckley said he hoped to have some input with the remaining candidates Democrat Jim Martin or Republican incumbent Saxby Chambliss.

Buckley said he wouldn't publicly endorse either Martin or Chambliss because neither candidate signed a 10 point commitment statement.

Buckley said he wanted the candidates to commit to, among other things, cutting pork barrel spending, fixing social security and not voting for an unbalanced budget.

While Buckley said he wouldn't endorse a candidate, he did say he knew who he wouldn't be voting for.

"I have not endorsed either man so as of right now, I can tell you I will not vote for Saxby Chambliss," Buckley said.
